A members' voluntary liquidation closes a solvent company: its directors declare that it can pay its debts in full.
In a voluntary administration, an independent administrator takes control of the company to decide its future: a deed of company arrangement, liquidation or a return to the directors.
A deed of company arrangement is a binding arrangement between a company and its creditors, overseen by a deed administrator.
A receiver is usually appointed by a secured creditor to collect and sell the assets that secure a debt.
