Help for Directors

All businesses face the occasional financial crisis but when they become a critical problem you need to know exactly where you stand. In our help for directors section, you will find specific information for answering your questions around if you are insolvent, what you need to do if you are and how it will affect you.

Creditors Voluntary Liquidation

What is known as Creditors Voluntary Liquidation is the process that most businesses must go through if they are insolvent. It can be a difficult time for everyone involved, so we have created this special section of our site to give you the important facts about CVLs in a clear and down to earth way so you can see where you stand.

Members Voluntary Liquidation

This is when your company is still solvent, but you (and your fellow directors) decide it is time to call it a day and retire or move on to the next stage of your lives.  With an MVL, you will release the assets and use these funds to pay off the creditors before returning the remaining funds to the shareholders.

Coventry is not a place that gives in to adversity and it has seen more than its fair share of difficult times. Re-building and carrying on business as usual, is practically a part of the philosophy of the city. Walking through Broadgate or weaving in and out of the colourful stalls in the market, you could be forgiven for forgetting that in the current difficult economy, we will be facing some hard times again. Sadly, some businesses will struggle to navigate those difficult times and will have financial problems. In reality, many of us will be facing the spectre of bankruptcy, cashflow issues and even insolvency. That is where we can be of assistance.

Whatever the outcome Smart Business Recovery will deal with you professionally, clearly, and above all with empathy for the difficult times you may be facing.
