Travelex Owner Starts Preparing for Potential Insolvency - Bloomberg:
Finablr Plc, the embattled owner of foreign-exchange businesses including Travelex Holdings Ltd., said it hired an adviser to prepare for potential insolvency proceedings.
The London-listed firm is working with an unidentified accounting firm on “rapid contingency planning,” according to a regulatory filing Tuesday. It’s taking the action “with a view to maximizing value in the group,” Finablr said in the filing.
Finablr’s move comes a day after it warned the board couldn’t accurately assess its financial situation and said its chief executive officer was stepping down. It said Monday the company would implement “a package of urgent measures” to restore stability and had hired compliance consultancy Kroll to review its debt and related-party transactions.
The company found about $100 million in checks dating from before Finablr’s May initial public offering that were used to benefit third parties, according to Monday’s statement.
