Administration is a formal insolvency process in the UK designed to protect a company from creditor action while a licensed insolvency practitioner seeks to rescue the business, achieve a better outcome for creditors than liquidation, or realise assets in an orderly way. It is often used for businesses under severe financial pressure, providing breathing space through a statutory moratorium while restructuring or sale options are explored.

Coverage includes updates on administration appointments, high-profile corporate cases, changes in insolvency law, and analysis of administration as a turnaround or exit strategy. Reporting also examines the procedural steps—such as court applications, the role of administrators, creditor communications, and proposals—alongside commentary on how different industries are affected.
