This comprehensive book provides an up-to-date and accessible overview of the relevant law and key issues surrounding company voluntary arrangements (CVAs). Andrew Keay and Peter Walton discuss the historical background as well as the procedural and legal requirements of CVAs.
Keay and Walton outline how CVAs can enable an insolvent company to come to terms with its situation and agree a way forward with its creditors. With a focus on the law in England and Wales, they assess the relevant procedure, investigating how the relevant provisions in the Insolvency Act 1986 and the Insolvency Rules 2016 have been interpreted and applied. The book further examines the critical case law that has developed since the introduction of CVAs in 1986.
