The Risks to Directors are 100% real!
Filling a DSO1 Dissolution Notice at Companies House knowing there are outstanding debts can lead to serious consequences for a Company Director, and in this case, even imprisonment.
Is it really worth it???
Director from Manchester, appeared at Manchester Crown Court on Friday 24 June 2022 where he was sentenced to 24 months.
This was the first successful criminal prosecution of a bounce bank loan fraudster for the Insolvency Service, which also saw the Director disqualified from acting as a director for 7 years.
