Frequently asked questions
What is a receivership?
A receivership is a court-appointed tool that can help troubled businesses avoid bankruptcy and assist creditors in recovering funds in default. It can also be part of a restructuring process a company initiates to restore profitability.
How is receivership different from bankruptcy?
These two terms are often confused. Bankruptcy is typically initiated to prevent a debtor from collection actions by creditors. Bankruptcy proceedings focus on shielding the borrower, whereas the goal of receivership is to protect the lender.
Why is the selection of a banking partner important?
Even when a company’s original banking partner has done nothing wrong, bringing in a different bank specifically for receivership proceedings eliminates conflicts of interest that would need to be resolved, a process that could delay restructuring.
