What does this entail?
Court-appointed receivership in the ADGM is a flexible mechanism used to safeguard, manage, or realise assets where the ADGM Courts consider it “just and convenient” to appoint a receiver.
Only registered ADGM Insolvency Practitioners may act as court-appointed receivers. The receiver is an officer of the court and may be appointed over specific assets, or (where directed) the wider business.
Powers are defined by the court order and can include taking possession, managing operations, investigating transactions, pursuing or defending claims, and disposing of assets as authorised. The receiver acts impartially and reports to the court as required.
