Rule

UK insolvency law formed under the companies act 2006, covers the matter related to the insolvency of an entity. Insolvent means a company is not able to pay off all its debts to its creditors

UK law offers support to banks and individuals associated with the insolvent company for a security interest. Security of interest means paying a fixed amount or value of the asset to the company that goes insolvent.

Bankruptcy act 1954 gives priority to all the creditors who owe money from the bankrupt company who went insolvent. As per this law, every creditor will get 50% for every 1 pound spent by an individual.

On the verge of companies went bankrupt, the court of law appoint an insolvency practitioner for paying off the debt of the creditors and the bank using assets. The insolvency cases manged by a separate tribunal headed y the insolvency act 1986.

The trustee distributes the money owed by the people from the proceeds of the assets to different users:

• Charges of liquidity
• Debt owe by creditors
• Paying off to the company
• Unsecured creditors
• Interest
• Shareholders

Creditors of the shareholders need to wait for a couple of weeks, months and years in some cases for getting the money back. The uncertainty ratio is higher as Insolvency practitioners take a lot of time in selling the assets. The proceeds generated from sales distributed among the recipients as per the priority.

Analysis

= 50000 pound
