Benefits of Chapter 11 for Businesses

Chapter 11 allows filers all the typical benefits of bankruptcy, including debt relief and a stop to collection actions through the automatic stay. However, Chapter 11 offers a specific and significant benefit to businesses.

Mainly, you can continue running your business while completing a Chapter 11 bankruptcy. While other forms of business bankruptcy, like Chapter 7, offer simplified proceedings, the filer will need to turn over their business assets to a bankruptcy trustee. Chapter 11 gives business owners the option to retain control of their businesses.

The Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Process

When filing a Chapter 11 petition with the court, the debtor must also file documentation of the following:

  • All assets and liabilities of the business
  • Current income and expenses of the business
  • Contracts and unexpired business leases
  • A statement of financial affairs

With this petition, the debtor can submit their reorganization plan. There is no specific time period for a Chapter 11 case, though it is common for these cases to wrap up within six months to two years.

Subsection V of Chapter 11

Recently, Congress passed Subsection V of Chapter 11, which created a more streamlined approach for certain debtors to undertake the Chapter 11 process. Small businesses debtors may be able to take advantage of this option.

Some benefits of Subsection V include:

  • No required disclosure statement
  • Typically no creditors' committee
  • Only the debtor can file a repayment plan - not creditors or other parties
  • Debtors can confirm qualifying plans without acceptance by creditors
