119. Not Every Job is a Nail

In this episode of The Sounds of the Baskerville, Chris Baskerville and James Flaherty go head-to-head on one of the most important decisions a distressed business can face. Both tools exist to restructure and preserve viable companies, but they are not interchangeable, and choosing the wrong one could cost you dearly. Chris breaks down the key differences: who stays in control, what the eligibility thresholds really mean, why unpaid super can be a dealbreaker, and why voluntary administration offers flexibility that SBR simply can't. He also explains the compelling maths behind SBR, how a director contributing $200,000 can wipe out $1 million in debt, and when that equation no longer makes sense.
