The phoenix from the ashes syndrome: most contractors will have been unfortunate enough to be hit by non-payment due to company insolvency
Article Abstract:
The 1986 Insolvency Act aimed to reduce the abuse of limited liability by directors, and in the case of phoenix companies, it seeks to restrict individuals who were directors of an insolvent company from being directors of a company or concerned with the promotion, formation or management of a company. Unsecured creditors should incorporate a retention of title clause in terms and conditions, and obtain security or personal guarantee from the director.
