Episode Synopsis
In this hard-hitting episode of The Sounds of the Baskerville, James Flaherty and insolvency specialist Chris Baskerville shine a light on the shadowy tactics some directors and advisors use to “game the system.” From exploiting loopholes in Small Business Restructuring rules to creating the illusion of being a secured creditor, Chris explains how these strategies often unravel and why they rarely end well. Listeners will hear about the rise of dodgy pre-insolvency advisors, illegal phoenix activity, and the risks directors face when they chase the advice they want to hear instead of the advice they need. With stories of raids, seized assets, and directors left holding the bag, this episode is a stark reminder that shortcuts in insolvency come at a high cost. Packed with candid insights, sharp anecdotes, and practical lessons, The Gamers is essential listening for business owners, creditors, and anyone curious about how the rules of insolvency really play out.
