Administrator's reports: looking for best practice

Article Abstract:

Voluntary administration has been part of Australia's corporate insolvency law governing bankruptcy since 1993, and the Insolvency Practitioners Association of Australia has been developing best practices guidelines for this type of bankruptcy accounting. The incorporation of details and other opinions, historical financial results, and estimated returns to creditors are among the practices to be considered. The independence of the administrator in the voluntary administration process is also considered to be of absolute importance.
