Company Liquidation
Company Liquidation is a process in which an LLC company (or branch of a company), a sole establishment, a free zone company, or an establishment closes its operation, and the assets and property of the Company or establishment are shared with the Company’s creditors and shareholders.
When a Company ends its operations, all the assets of the Company are distributed to the Shareholders of the Company after the settlement of dues to the creditor. In company liquidation, all parties involved should be treated equally – that one party does not benefit at the expense of others involved.
