Mitigating risk: Lending, security and succession in sole director companies DESCRIPTION:\nWhen a company is led by a sole director, it can create added complexity, particularly when it comes to decision-making, documentation, and succession planning.\n\n\n\nIf that director becomes incapacitated or passes away, the business can grind to a halt, raising critical questions about access to funds, enforceability of agreements, and recovery of lending. Even solvent companies can face delays that directly impact repayment timelines and security positions.\n\n\n\nJoin experts from Clarion for a focused and practical discussion on the risks, responsibilities, and questions every broker and lender should be asking when dealing with companies that have a sole director.\n\n\n\nDuration: 45 minutes, free to attend\n\n\n\nWhat we’ll cover:\n\n\n\n\nWhat happens legally and practically if a sole director can no longer act\n\n\n\nThe impact on existing loan facilities, guarantees, and security documents\n\n\n\nThe importance of checking whether a will is in place and up to date\n\n\n\nThe key governance and continuity questions brokers and lenders should ask before funding\n\n\n\nWhether shareholders have the right powers to appoint a replacement director quickly\n\n\n\nThe implications for fund distribution — in both solvent and insolvent scenarios\n\n\n\nHow quickly an estate can liquidate assets and repay lenders\n\n\n\nWhy proper succession and will planning can significantly reduce risk and recovery delays\n\n\n\nThe importance of a Power of Attorney\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers:\n\n\n\n\nAndrea Unwin, Legal Director, Banking and Finance\n\n\n\nRyan Millmore, Joint Managing Partner, Business Recovery & Insolvency\n\n\n\nNicola Cooper, Legal Director, Corporate\n\n\n\nKeil Walsh, Senior Associate, Private Wealth\n\n\n\n\nWhy attend:\n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the lending and recovery risks of sole-director structures\n\n\n\nLearn what to look for during due diligence to protect your position\n\n\n\nGet practical guidance from lawyers who regularly advise on funding and governance matters\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here\n\n URL:https://nacfb.org/events/clarion-solicitors-webinar-january-2026/ ORGANIZER;CN=Clarion Solictors:MAILTO: CATEGORIES:Webinar LOCATION:Virtual event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://nacfb.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Clarion-Solictors-webinar-January-2025.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
