Overseas Members Voluntary Liquidation

Our London office has recently completed a successful Members Voluntary Liquidation for Homejoy Europe Limited, a cleaning services company. The team was headed up by Antony Batty (licensed insolvency practitioner). This article features a testimonial from a happy client, with perhaps the main point being that the MVL was for an overseas client, which didn’t prove any obstacle at all to a smooth process.

Background to this Members Voluntary Liquidation

With its registered office based in Reading, Homejoy Europe Limited was an overseas subsidiary of a US based company. The directors and shareholders decided on a Members Voluntary Liquidation as part of their overseas restructuring plans and appointed our London office as the liquidator.

The case required detailed work regarding intercompany debts, whilst ensuring that HMRC clearance was obtained at all points. This was of particular importance when detailing with the parent company and its subsidiary which were in different jurisdictions.

The outcome saw a £77k repayment of intercompany debt and a final cash distribution of £5k to the USA based shareholders in the parent company.

It is nice to know we have a trusted firm in Europe who can help us with MVLs.  Being overseas did not encumber the process at all and your firm proved to be professional, efficient and communicative, all at a very fair price.
