The Insolvency Service awarded this contract to ZK Analytics Limited worth £54,720 on 8 Jan 2026. The contract runs until 31 Mar 2026.
Description
A recent High Court decision in NOAL SCSp & Ors v Novalpina Capital LLP & Ors
[2025] EWHC 1392 (Ch)1
interpreted the law governing members' voluntary
liquidations (MVLs) to mean that all creditors (and interest) must be paid in full within
12 months of the commencement of the liquidation procedure. There is currently limited
data and research evidence available on MVLs. The Authority is therefore
commissioning a one-off research project for two primary purposes. Firstly, to better
understand the potential impact of this ruling. Secondly to explore and understand the
MVL landscape more generally, with particular focus on metrics around efficiency and
effectiveness.
