Insolvency Practitioner
In the
United Kingdom
an
Insolvency Practitioner
is a person specialising in formal
Insolvency
cases: more often than not, such people have an accountancy background - very few active practitioners are lawyers. Insolvency is a regulated profession under the
Insolvency Act 1986
and anyone who wishes to practice as an
Insolvency Practitioner
needs to hold an Insolvency Licence. Such licences can be issued by any of the following
recognised professional bodies
:
Insolvency Practitioners Association
Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales
Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland
Institute of Chartered Accountants in Scotland
The Law Society
The Law Society of Northern Ireland
The Law Society of Scotland
The Chartered Association of Certified Accountants
Licences are now only issued upon satisfactory completion of a professional examination held by the
Joint Insolvency Examination Board
. There are currently about 1,700 Licensed Practitioners in the United Kingdom, not all of whom take appointments many lawyers hold licences but do not use them to take appointments, preferring to advise other practitioners. Under UK law, any of the following types of formal insolvency procedure must be dealt with by a Licensed Insolvency Practitioner:
Bankruptcy
Liquidations
Individual Voluntary Arrangements
Company Voluntary Arrangements
Administrations
Administrative Receiverships
Deed of Arrangement
