Thames Water Company Report The reporting of Thames Water being on the brink of collapse owing millions has been a major shock for many, including its 15 million customers! But should it be? Since the privatization of the water companies in 1989, 9 of the 15 water and sewage companies are owned by ‘special purpose companies. They’ve been set up to buy water utilities and are made up of private equity funds, sovereign equity funds, and pension funds. When the privatized companies started out, they had no debt. By 2022, the sector will be in debt to the tune of £60.6 billion. visit: https://www.leading.uk.com/

Why You May Need to Dissolve a Company in the United Kingdom There’s often some confusion between liquidation and dissolving a company; they are not the same thing. You can only dissolve a solvent-limited company, i.e. one without any debt. If the company is carrying debt, i.e. is insolvent, it has to be liquidated. Now we’ve clarified the two, how long does it take to dissolve a limited company in the UK and what’s the process? Visit - https://www.leading.uk.com/

This means there are sufficient funds available, so the Personal Representative can continue to administer the estate and liquidate (sell) the estate assets, pay the debts and distribute the remaining assets to the beneficiaries.
