Press Release
Summary = In the past when people were overwhelmed by debt, bankruptcy
was the only solution. However, the introduction of individual voluntary
arrangements has created a new alternative to bankruptcy which is
beneficial for
both the debtor and the creditor.
Press Release
Body = This May, the Department of Trade and Industry found that
there were 10,091 bankruptcies in the first quarter of 2005. This
represents an increase of 24.5% on the corresponding quarter of
last year.
Bankruptcy can
leave an individual feeling ashamed, depressed and out of control.
Furthermore, for many the stigma of bankruptcy can be too much to
bear.
However, there
may be an alternative to going bankrupt which can also help people
in
serious debt to make a fresh start.
The Insolvency
Act of 1986 introduced The Individual Voluntary Arrangement (better
known as an IVA) as an alternative to bankruptcy.
Individual-Voluntary-Arrangement.org,
is a market leader in IVA management. It
arranges Individual Voluntary Arrangements to help people solve
their debt problems
and avoid bankruptcy. The idea behind the introduction of the IVA
was to enable people facing financial difficulties to come to a
formal agreement with their creditors rather than having to face
bankruptcy. If an IVA is agreed between the debtor and creditor:
• Interest on the loan is frozen
• Legal proceedings are stopped
• The overall debt is reduced
An IVA is generally seen as a more favorable option than bankruptcy
from both the
debtor’s and creditor’s perspective. This is because
there are no fees or legal
proceeding involved with an IVA, unlike with bankruptcy. Furthermore,
from the
creditor’s point of view, an IVA offers a greater repayment
of the debt than would
otherwise be achieved if the debtor were made bankrupt.
The IVA represents both an exciting new opportunity to avoid bankruptcy
and to make a fresh start at the same time.
