Advantages of a pre-pack

A pre-pack is when an insolvent company’s business (and/or assets) are sold prior to the company going into an administration. A pre pack is all negotiated and agreed before a Licensed Insolvency Practitioner (IP) is appointed, and is then facilitated once the IP has been formally place in office.

Under the terms of a prepack the core business is usually sold with little or no open marketing. The creditors and customers are not usually of the pre-pack until it all ready to execute.
