Liquidation vs. Strike-Off: Understanding the Distinction
Liquidation suits insolvent companies needing to settle debts through asset distribution. In contrast, strike-off is streamlined and ideal for debt-free companies ceasing operations.
Timeframe for Liquidation in the UK
Liquidation duration is variable, generally spanning several months, influenced by the company’s size and complexity.
Eligibility for Opting for Strike-Off
Strike-off is geared towards companies with no active trading, significant debts, or ongoing disputes, making it unsuitable for all business types.
The liquidator’s key responsibilities include debt settlement, asset liquidation, and distribution of remaining funds to creditors and shareholders.
Transparency in Costs
Novo Solution is committed to transparent cost structures, ensuring clarity about all expenses without hidden charges.
Asset Management during Liquidation
Liquidation typically involves selling assets to clear debts, with any surplus distributed to shareholders.

While not obligatory, expert advice can streamline the dissolution process, guaranteeing legal compliance and ease.
