Like any other business owner, we need to be across the implications of the UK’s VAT regime, not just for the implications of running our own business, but the businesses to which we are appointed. We need to understand the VAT regime, when to charge VAT, the implications of continued trading and how we deal with HMRC post-appointment.

CVAs are designed as a solution for resolving a company’s cash flow issues, or de-leveraging a debt-heavy but viable business. But what are the underlying factors that make them successful, and what do you need to consider before starting the statutory process?

Regulatory and judicial attention is never far away from the topic of insolvency practitioners' fees.
