Restructuring & Insolvency analysis: For the first time in this jurisdiction, the court has ordered the winding up of a listed plc on the just and equitable ground under section 122(1)(g) of the Insolvency Act 1986 (IA 1986) for loss of substratum. In a reserved judgment handed down on 17 March 2022 (following a two-week trial in February 2022), the High Court has clarified and modernised English law in line with more recent Australian authorities.
