IPA announce date for Annual Insolvency Conference

The conference taking place on 14th April at One Great George Street, London SW1 will also incorporate, in recognition of the significance of the date, the Association’s AGM.

The agenda for the conference will include the soon to be published proposals from the Insolvency Service regarding the ongoing use of Pre-Packs, also the eagerly awaited Insolvency Services response and possible consultation document on the OFT recommendations.

These two documents could represent the start of the most significant shake up of insolvency regulation for 25 years and the conference will discuss in detail the IPA’s response.

Additionally the conference will be looking at what effects the Bribery Act may have on corporate hospitality and will also examine the Insolvency insurance market. A full list of speakers will be announced in due course.

Carl Faulds, IPA President, commented:

“In this, the 50th year of the IPA, the challenges that face the profession and the Regulators are significant and the conference will be a celebration of all that we have accomplished, as well as examining the issues that we as an industry must address.

"We have achieved a great deal in our relatively short history but we still have a great deal more to do to help to shape the regulations that govern our industry. I look forward to seeing many of our members at what promises to be an interesting day.”
