Advising the Company Director in Financial Difficulties - Live with Stephen Allinson

Introduction

Insolvency is an area of law that has been in the headlines in recent times for many reasons and is likely to stay at the forefront of professional life due to the unprecedented economic and financial issues that all businesses currently face.

This virtual classroom seminar will look at the whole subject through the lens of the company director and examine in a very practical way the advice that professionals need to be considering in advising on this area of law.

It will bring matters totally up to date with the developments during and post the COVID pandemic to include the well publicised HMRC clamp down on furlough and bounce back loan fraud.

Never has it been as important to be fully aware of all aspects of commercial advice to be given to company directors.
