How is administrative receivership used?
Administrative receivership was commonly used by banks up to 2003 when the law changed although it can still be used by lenders today if they hold a debenture dated 2003 or older.
The reaction of most directors on discovering that their company is going to enter administrative receivership is one of stress and feelings of personal failure. However, it may be the case that with quick action you can still rescue your company.
