A Members Voluntary Liquidation is the liquidation of a solvent company by adoption of a shareholder resolution to voluntarily wind up the business. The shareholders also choose and appoint a liquidator.
Since a Members Voluntary Liquidation is not an insolvency procedure, a Statutory Declaration of Solvency must be made by the company directors. Although the courts do not need to be involved, a qualified liquidator must be appointed.
A Members Voluntary Liquidation is also known as Members Voluntary Winding Up, or simply Voluntary Winding Up.
