This is a liquidation that is ordered by the court, usually on the petition of a creditor, the company or a shareholder.
The matter in the first instance is dealt with by the Official Receiver's office. If there are sufficient assets, the Official Receiver may appoint a liquidator directly or convene a meeting of creditors for that purpose. However, the Official Receiver remains responsible for investigating the conduct of the directors and the company.
