					<description><![CDATA[An insolvency proceeding is a process taken when an organisation or individual are no longer able to meet their financial obligations and pay their creditors when debts are due. Insolvency proceedings usually take place after less formal arrangements have failed and can be the result of bad financial management, changing market trends, heightened expenses and reduced income. Compulsory and voluntary liquidations Insolvency proceedings can begin if the debtor company owe more than £750 and are not disputing the debt. This process is known as compulsory liquidation and will normally start when a statutory demand is issued against you. A winding-up petition will then follow. If creditors are successful, your business will be closed as a result and will disappear from the register in around 8-12 weeks. You may decide voluntary liquidation is right for you if you [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[While consumers have become accustomed to pay for goods and services by using smartphones, many small businesses remain hesitant to accept mobile payments because of the associated equipment purchases and fees. However, over the past decade, huge strides have been made in mobile technology, and the near ubiquity of smartphones and tablets among consumers indicates that mobile payments will eventually become a standard point of sale option. Why it&#8217;s important to accept mobile payments  Commenting, Gerald Irwin of Sutton Coldfield-based Licensed Insolvency Practitioners and Business Advisers, Irwin Insolvency said “for service-based businesses, accepting payments via a customer&#8217;s smartphone may not make much sense at this point but brick-and-mortar shops and restaurants that want to speed up transaction times and ultimately, improve customer turnover rates might find it helpful to offer this option to consumers. “ [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Failing businesses with a chance of survival could qualify for an extra lifeline through a new Government guarantee, which would protect the supply of essential services to them during rescue talks. Essential information technology services together with water, gas and electricity supplies will be covered by measures announced recently. This would prevent suppliers from cutting off essential services during rescue talks or indeed increasing charges. How the new legislation can help “Suppliers will be guaranteed payment ahead of other creditors providing services during that time and can ask for guarantees of payments from insolvency practitioners” said Gerald Irwin of Sutton Coldfield-based Licensed Insolvency Practitioners and Business Advisers, Irwin Insolvency. The government has already introduced legislation through the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act to prevent suppliers withdrawing essential services after a business enters Administration but it [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Cyclical financial markets and extreme volatility have combined to create a climate where no business can take economic stability for granted, even though things are improving.  Many businesses have turned to downsizing to improve their economic health but this has taken its toll by robbing many businesses of management talents. Thus the ranks of managers groomed to assume top positions have been thinned dramatically reducing the ability to provide strong leadership just at a time when recovery is on its way. A professional business adviser can enter a business with a fresh eye and complete objectivity in order to spot problems and create new solutions that may not be visible to the existing management team.  There is absolutely no political agenda to bias the decision-making process thus allowing some unpopular but vital steps leading to [&#8230;]]]></description>
