Group Structure Simplification

In August 2012 we were asked to advise the directors of a group consisting of no less than 17 companies, 2 of which were registered in Hong Kong. Following the close down of the Hong Kong companies we undertook the solvent winding up (MVL) of 8 of the UK based companies and as a result streamlined the group down to 7 companies.

The 7 liquidations resulted in a significant return of capital to the remaining companies with the further benefit of the restructure being a drastic reduction in future compliance costs.  

The range of options Alison comes up with, the respect she shows everyone and the skill with which she deploys it means that insolvency is a less painful process than other people in the industry can deliverPatrick Gore (Hollis Gore Associates)
