Exiting your business through a solvent winding up

In the fourth of our series on different stages of funding through the business life cycle, Stuart Mullins, Clarkslegal and James Hopkirk, Kreston Reeves discuss how Insolvency Legislation can help owners of solvent businesses to extract cash and other assets tax efficiently from their companies.

  • Legal considerations when looking to cease to trade;
  • What is Members’ Voluntary Liquidation and how it can be a tax efficient route for distribution of assets and surplus cash; and
  • What is the role of the Liquidator and how does the process work in practice?

Should you wish to discuss any of the issues highlighted in the webinar or you would like further information on Clarkslegal, please email marketing@clarkslegal.com.
