New Type CVA - With Moratorium - Unsecured Creditors

Unsecured creditors indirectly benefit under the new CVA process as:

  • Debenture holders are prevented from appointing an Administrative Receiver
  • Landlords cannot distrain or take peaceable re-entry.
  • The Finance Companies cannot re-possess their goods
  • A winding up petition cannot be issued.
  • Existing winding up petitions cannot be taken forward to the making of a winding up order.

All of these restrictions result in the government aim of their being a "rescue culture" as being more likely to happen.

In future "creditors as a group" will in many cases determine what is to happen to the future of a company suffering financial distress rather than the life of that company being prematurely brought to an end by the action of any individual creditor.
