Administration
114

A bank liquidator who thinks that administration would achieve a better result for the bank's creditors as a whole than bank insolvency may apply to the court for an administration order (under paragraph 38 of Schedule B1 to the Insolvency Act 1986).
2
An application may be made only if the following conditions are satisfied.
3
Condition 1 is that the liquidation committee has passed a full payment resolution.
4
Condition 2 is that the liquidation committee has resolved that moving to administration might enable the rescue of the bank as a going concern.

Condition 3 is that the bank liquidator is satisfied, as a result of arrangements made with the FSCS, that any depositors still eligible for compensation under the scheme will receive their payments or have their accounts transferred during administration.
