Understanding Insolvency

Insolvency is a legal status wherein a business cannot meet its financial obligations, either due to inadequate cash flow or because liabilities exceed assets. When a company is insolvent, it may need to enter insolvency procedures, such as voluntary administration, liquidation, or receivership. Each has different implications for your business, its operations, and its future. It’s critical to understand these to make the best decision. Insolvency Australia is here to help you understand these complex concepts and their implications for your business.

Identifying Your Financial Status

Before filing for insolvency, conducting a thorough review of your financial situation is crucial. This involves a comprehensive audit of your assets (both tangible and intangible), liabilities (secured and unsecured), and cash flow. A proper review will give a detailed understanding of your financial health, your ability to repay debts, and the extent of your financial distress. Insolvency Australia can help you identify the appropriate expert to assist you in conducting this review, providing a clear picture of your financial situation.
