Insolvency occurs when your debt exceeds your assets/income or unforeseen circumstances result in your inability to meet the contractual obligations you have with your Credit Providers. Once this occurs various legal solutions exist to either write this debt off or to extend terms and lower interest rates through negotiations with your Credit Providers.
So what Debt Solutions exist to assist with Insolvency?
Insolvency is not the same as bankruptcy, but it is one of the criteria for bankruptcy. You can also apply for Debt Consolidation, Bond Consolidation or Debt Review before considering bankruptcy or sequestration.
Trying to determine if you're insolvent can be stressful and it's not always clear what should be done to improve finances. Start by arranging a free, no obligation consultation to determine what options are available to you.
To calculate if you are currently insolvent, make a list of all of your current outstanding debt. Now make a list of assets including savings and investment accounts, property, tools of the trade etc. Indicate their current market value and not what you actually paid for these assets. i.e. Property might have increased in value, tools of the trade might have decreased in value from the purchase price. Compare these two values to see if you are insolvent.
