Modifications etc. (not altering text)
C1Pt. IV applied (with modifications) (10.8.2005) by The Insurers (Reorganisation and Winding Up) (Lloyd's) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/1998), regs. 1, 40(1)-(11) (with reg. 32) (as amended by S.I. 2018/208, regs. 1(3), 10(10) (with reg. 21); S.I. 2019/755, regs. 1, 6(6))
25.—(1) This regulation applies in the case of the winding up of a non-transferring composite insurer where the long term business assets and the general business assets, applied in accordance with regulation 22, are insufficient to meet in full the preferential debts and insurance debts.
(2) In a case in which this regulation applies, the other assets (if any) of the insurer must be applied in the following order of priority—
(a)outstanding preferential debts;
(b)unattributed preferential debts;
(c)outstanding insurance debts;
(d)all other debts.
(3) So far as the long term business assets, and any available general business assets, which are available for the payment of unsecured creditors are insufficient to meet the outstanding preferential debts and the unattributed preferential debts, those debts (and only those debts) have priority over the claims of holders of debentures secured by, or holders of, any floating charge created by the insurer over any of its other assets, and must be paid accordingly out of any property comprised in or subject to that charge.
(4) For the purposes of this regulation—
“outstanding insurance debt” means any insurance debt, or any part of an insurance debt, which was not discharged by the application of the long term business assets and the general business assets in accordance with regulation 22;
“outstanding preferential debt” means any preferential debt attributable either to the long term business or the general business of the insurer which was not discharged by the application of the long term business assets and the general business assets in accordance with regulation 23;
“unattributed preferential debt” means a preferential debt which is not attributable to either the long term business or the general business of the insurer.
