CVL Procedure

The detailed review referred to on the "What is a CVL?" page is the first step.

Assume that the review advice is to take the CVL route.

The steps that then follow are:

  • Notices are signed by the directors to call a separate:
    • Shareholders meeting
    • and a creditors meeting.

     

  • At the shareholders meeting the directors nominate the liquidator of their choice. The liquidator ultimately appointed however, must be approved by the creditors.
