It is an informal agreement between an individual and their creditors.

IVA
IVA stands for ‘Individual Voluntary Arrangement’ which is a formal agreement between an individual and their creditors whereby acceptance is reached to allow reduced payments to be made meaning that a percentage of the debt will be cleared. The length of time for an IVA to run is 5 years which at the end of the term any outstanding debt will effectively be written off.
There are certain criteria to be able to go down the IVA route some of which are you must have debts above £15,000 and you must have disposable income of more than £200.
This is a legally binding agreement and so long as the agreed payments are made which form the agreement, an individual will be free from debt at the end. Such agreements can only be set up by a licensed professional.
Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy is often viewed as the last alternative, but depending on the state of an individual’s financial circumstance can be the first or only option.
In the past bankruptcy carried a bad stigma, but fact is that it’s an option which should be seriously considered if the individual is unable to pay or contribute monies towards their debts.
For first time bankrupt’s they will find that their debt will be discharged within 12 months sometimes in even less time.
