362.This section provides a way to terminate a bank administration where objective 1 has been achieved and the bank has also, in the opinion of the bank administrator, been rescued as a going concern.
363.This provision allows for the dissolution of the residual banking company where the objectives of the bank administration procedure have been achieved and the bank’s affairs have been fully wound up.
364.Alternatively, where it would be in the best interests of creditors, the bank administrator may make proposals to creditors for a company voluntary arrangement under Part 1 of the Insolvency Act 1986. These provisions mirror some of the current exit routes from an ordinary administration.
365.As the bank administrator is given some additional powers usually only available to a liquidator (see the note to section 145), it is not necessary to provide for conversion to a creditors’ voluntary liquidation to effect a distribution to unsecured creditors.
