Company Voluntary Arrangement 101
Overview
Businesses closing down is not uncommon, and there’s no guaranteed formula to prevent this. Factors like poor management and negative cash flow can often be addressed, but issues such as natural disasters and market downturns are beyond a business owner’s control.
When faced with financial hardship, business owners might assume bankruptcy is their only option. However, a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) offers an alternative. A CVA is a formal agreement between a struggling business and its creditors that can benefit both parties. It allows business owners to retain control while creditors receive at least part of the money owed. The primary goal is to restore the business to financial health and profitability.
How a CVA Works
To qualify for a CVA, a business should demonstrate potential for recovery and future profitability. Under a CVA, the business owner remains in charge but must implement changes to enhance financial performance. Once the business stabilizes, a portion of profits is directed toward settling debts.
A CVA is not an informal deal; it requires the assistance of a legal professional or insolvency practitioner (IP). This expert visits the business to identify issues and suggest strategies for stabilization. If deemed viable, a CVA proposal is drafted, submitted to county courts, and circulated among creditors. Approval requires a 75% favorable vote from creditors and 50% from shareholders.
The CVA Process
Engaging in a CVA can be an exhaustive process, testing the resolve of many business owners. However, for those confident in their business's recovery potential, it offers a fresh start and a second chance to succeed.
By fostering collaboration between business owners and creditors, a CVA provides a structured path to financial recovery and sustainability.
