    Court approves scheme of arrangement for insurance run-off
    2012-07-13

    Justice Venning approved a scheme of arrangement under Part 15 of the Companies Act 1993 effecting the managed withdrawal by ACS (NZ) Limited from its insurance business in New Zealand.  The Court noted that the Scheme provided the best opportunity for an ordered and efficient run-off and management of claims with minimal disruption in relation to the company's processes.  In liquidation, the liquidators would need time to familiarise themselves with the operation of the company and would proceed on a cautious basis, which would likely result in a material delay in meeting claims.
