The role of Insolvency Trustees in Ontario

An insolvency trustee is a professional with an in-depth understanding of the laws and regulations related to insolvency. Trustees help individuals or businesses who are facing financial hardship by negotiating terms with creditors, assessing assets and liabilities to determine repayment plans, liquidating assets if necessary, and ensuring compliance with insolvency regulations. Trustees also provide guidance on how to best manage debts during the restructuring process. Depending on the type of insolvency Ontario case, trustees may also be required to monitor payments made by debtors and ensure that they are being routed properly. Trustees play a key role in helping individuals or businesses get back on their feet financially while also protecting creditors’ interests.

Trustees must abide by various laws, such as the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act.
