JOINT MIDLANDS IFT & R3 EVENT

Written by Claire Lewis on November 9, 2022

We’re pleased to invite you to a joint IFT and R3 event in Birmingham on 8th November, from 17:45-20:00.

Restructuring Issues

As the Midlands emerges from the pandemic and faces the headwinds of inflation and repayment of support, there are considerable challenges facing stakeholders and advisors over the coming years. A panel of TE’s, funders, lawyers and IP’s will undertake an interactive discussion around the key issues facing the community including;

Restructuring skillsets that may be required, how restructuring and Insolvency may interact, diversity and inclusion and changes to regulation and risk.

The panel includes:

  • Eddie Williams – PwC
  • Kelly Jones – Kingsgate
  • David Bates – Lloyds Bank
  • Dan Hurd – EY
  • Amy Flavell – Pinsent Masons

 

HMRC as Stakeholder

The position of HMRC as a key stakeholder in middle market restructurings is likely to become increasingly important over the coming period in areas around Time to Pay, HMRC Winding Up Petitions and approach. We will be joined by tax specialists who will provide up to date views on HMRC’s position in restructurings and how they may impact on any future restructuring strategies.

This will be a discussion with a Caroline Sumner of R3 and Jim Morrison of HMRC

 

The programme for the evening will be:

5:45pm – Coffee/Networking

6:10pm – Presentations

7.00pm – Networking over food & drinks

We look forward to seeing a great mix of Independent and Corporate members from both the IFT and R3 on the night.

Places are limited and open to IFT and R3 members only. Please email info@the-ift.com to register your interest.
