An introduction to statutory demands and winding-up proceedings in the Isle of Man

---

Location: Online Live Webinar

This DQ sponsored session will be presented by DQ's Mark Emery and Alexander Armstrong, who will provide a brief overview of statutory demands and winding-up proceedings in the Isle of Man. This is an issue which, with the economic uncertainties surrounding COVID and Brexit, is unfortunately only going to become more common for CSP's to deal with over the coming months. The webinar will include a broad summary of the law, together with practical guidance as to what the options are when receiving a statutory demand and the process and possible defences in respect of winding-up proceedings in the Isle of Man High Court.
