Partner David Jones and Counsel Tim Bamford will be presenting alongside Ben Rhodes and Oliver Beaton from Grant Thornton covering the topic 'Changes to Guernsey's insolvency regime'.

The event hosted by GAT and STEP will be taking place in the Colborne Room at the OGH Hotel on Tuesday 28 February from 12:00pm - 1:00pm.

The most significant and wide-ranging reform of Guernsey's corporate insolvency regime since 2008 came into force on 1 January 2023 and will have implications for company directors and their advisors. 

The following considerations will be covered:

  • What are the steps for placing a solvent or an insolvent company into Members' Voluntary Liquidation, and how do they now differ?
  • Can a director of a company, or another connected person, be appointed Liquidator?
  • What considerations should a director have when making a Declaration of Solvency?
  • What are the potential repercussions in making an incorrect Declaration of Solvency?
  • What requirements will Liquidators and Administrators now have in relation to director misconduct?
  • In what circumstances might an audit be required?

Tea/coffee will be available but no lunch will be served due to time constraints. Please arrive in good time for registration which will be open from 11.45am.
