We are pleased to be presenting a webinar titled “Equitable Liens & Insolvency Statistics” and welcome registrations to attend this online if you are unable to attend in person in Auckland on Tuesday 8 August 2023.
We welcome Iain McLennan and Keaton Pronk, insolvency practitioners from McDonald Vague Limited, who will be presenting on Equitable Liens & Insolvency Stats
Recent decisions have lead to a change in how equitable liens affect secured creditors in an insolvency process in relation to their rights in any partly-purchased, bespoke and identifiable goods.
Iain McLennan and Keaton Pronk will look at the decision and its implications. They will cover what an equitable lien is, how it helped the purchasers of stock in an insolvency process, and where to from here. They will also look at the latest insolvency stats for personal and corporate around winding up applications and appointments.
