The law relating to these matters is principally contained in the Insolvency Act 1986 (IA 1986) together with the Insolvency Rules 1986, as amended by the Insolvency Act 2000 and the Enterprise Act 2002. The insolvency legislation provides four procedures for companies in financial difficulties: administration, voluntary arrangement, receivership, and liquidation.

Infinity Business Group, Inc. (IBG), a company specializing in the collection of bad checks, was incorporated in 2003. IBG recorded its collection fees as Accounts Receivable even before the Not-Sufficient-Funds checks were collected, a method not in compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; accordingly, IBG’s auditor should not have issued unqualified opinions on the financial statements during 2003-2008. A $23 million write-off of Accounts Receivable in 2009 had a devastating effect on the company and it declared bankruptcy in 2010. In 2019, the Bankruptcy Court ruled: (a) the auditor’s unqualified opinions violated the U.S. Securities Exchange Act, and the auditor was forced to plead guilty to one felony count of securities fraud; (b) IBG’s CFO was dishonest when he responded to an inquiry from a lender about the Accounts Receivable; (c) Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc. (MK), a brokerage and investment banking firm contractually affiliated with IBG, encouraged IBG to discontinue using the improper accounting method; (d) IBG’s President Cordell made a misrepresentation to MK in 2007 when he stated that all of the questionable Accounts Receivable had been written off; (e) in 2008, MK became aware that IBG might change the accounting method; (f) MK never encouraged IBG managers to breach fiduciary duties to IBG; (g) MK did not owe IBG fiduciary duties, but even if it did, there is no evidence of a breach because MK encouraged discontinuance of the improper accounting practice; (h) some of the managers and directors of IBG were innocent, they did not participate in daily operations of the company, and they did not have control of the company; and (i) notwithstanding the fact they did not commit securities fraud, some of the “innocent” managers and directors failed to discharge their duties to IBG by advocating for the continued use of the improper accounting method. On appeal in 2021, the District Court affirmed the Bankruptcy Court, holding that: it did not make any legal errors; the Bankruptcy Trustee did not adequately prove damages caused by MK; and the Bankruptcy Trustee’s claims were barred by the Doctrine of in Pari Delicto.

The chapter discusses the process of applying for and making winding-up orders. Proceedings for Winding Up by the Court Under Insolvency Act 1986 must be made by Petition. Winding up is most often sought by creditors of insolvent companies and is usually seen primarily as an insolvency procedure. Other purposes may justify making a winding-up order. From the time that a court makes an order that a company is to be wound up, the company has a liquidator under IA 1986. The liquidator must take into his custody or under his control all the property and things in action to which the company is or appears to be entitled. A compulsory winding up is wholly dependent on the court. It is for the court to oversee the realization of the assets of the company and their distribution, on the correct principles, among creditors and members. Legislation has made available various company insolvency procedures which, though not winding-up orders or bank or building society insolvency orders, replace a company’s directors with an independent insolvency office-holder who is at least capable of achieving the winding up of the company.
