There are five forms of insolvency procedures for companies in the UK . These are:
- Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA)
- Administration
- Administrative Receivership
- Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation (CVL)
- Compulsory Liquidation (WUC)
The first three procedures are seen as tools that can be used to assist a business rescue or turnaround. Liquidation is a terminal process for the company which leads to the cessation of trade of the business.
There is also a Members' Voluntary Liquidation (MVL). However, this applies to solvent companies which, by definition, can pay their debts in full with interest.
