What this means for suppliers, creditors and counterparties
The filing of a winding-up petition triggers significant legal risks for counterparty transactions under s.127 of the Insolvency Act 1986. If the court subsequently grants a winding-up order:
1. Disposition of Property: Any transfer of company assets, bank payments, or share transactions executed after 9 October 2026 is void unless validated by court order.
2. Bank Account Freezing: Financial institutions usually freeze company bank accounts once notice of a petition is advertised or identified.
3. Risk Ranking: Counterparties usually audit exposure, verify delivery schedules, and assess whether to pause credit lines.
Credit managers routinely run a winding up search when evaluating trade exposure or managing payment delays on high-risk accounts. Conducting a routine winding up search ensures trade credit is not extended to counterparties facing active court petitions.

Section 127 invalidates dispositions of company property made after the presentation date if a winding-up order is eventually made by the court, unless validated by court order.
