The Corporate Insolvency and Governance Act received royal assent on 25 June 2020 and comes into force immediately.
The Act introduces a range of new corporate restructuring tools and suspends, temporarily, parts of the existing insolvency regime. The purpose of this note is to update you on two key aspects of the Act: the moratorium on legal action and the temporary changes in relation to statutory demands and winding-up petitions.
