VOLUNTARY ADMINISTRATION

A form of Administration (both Internal and External) that involves the appointment of a registered, independent insolvency practitioner called an 'Administrator'. The role of an Administrator is to take complete control of an insolvent company, generally for a relatively short period, to maximise the chances of a company remaining in existence or, if that is not possible, achieving a better outcome for creditors than what would occur if the company was immediately wound up.

CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING

Occurs when a company appoints a 'Restructuring Practitioner' who assists with the development of a restructuring plan to repay existing debts owed to creditors. In a restructuring scheme, directors continue to control the company, rather than the Restructuring Practitioner taking over from directors and shareholders.
