BEWARE UNREGULATED ADVISERS!

By Tim Corfield

 

Would you go to an unqualified physician for a surgical operation? No.

So, why do so many directors seek advice from unqualified, unregulated, possibly uninsured advisers? The most likely explanation is, of course, they don’t know and they don’t understand the importance of getting the right advice when their company is facing financial difficulties.

Help is at hand with our large and small business debt solutions! R3 (Association of Business Recovery Professionals) have issued a user friendly booklet to help guide directors when they are faced with these problems – have a look yourself.

I suspect unqualified advisers won’t make this available!

Only licensed insolvency practitioners (IP’s) can carry out, legally, an insolvency procedure, such as a creditors’ voluntary liquidation, company voluntary arrangement or administration. Any unlicensed adviser would still need to refer a director to a licensed IP to carry out a formal insolvency procedure which, in itself, would represent an immediate duplication of costs.
