    On a compulsory winding up of a company, who will the court usually appoint?
    A The auditor of the company
    B The Official Receiver
    C A qualified insolvency practitioner

    ANS-B

    Good day sir, what is the difference between a receiver and a liquidator

    Also is it still the shareholders or creditors that pick the liquidator eventually?

    A receiver is like a surgeon, trying to save the body (corporate) when it gets into financial trouble

    A liquidator is like a Death Sentence – the job of the liquidator is to kill the company

    Is that enough for you?

    Sorry, second question!

    If it’s a members voluntary winding up, it’s the shareholders that appoint the liquidator

    If it’s a creditors voluntary winding up, it’s the creditors that appoint the liquidator

    And if it’s a compulsory winding up by order of the court, the court will appoint the Official Receiver to be the provisional liquidator until the creditors of the company have a meeting (called by the OR) and are given the opportunity to appoint their own choice of liquidator (or simply agree to authorise the OR to continue)

    OK?
