The directors may have to relinquish control of the company. Depending upon the purpose of administration, or if the business is sold to a third party, they may also be made redundant.
The administration will be noted publicly, recorded at Companies House, advertised in the London Gazette and must be shown on any correspondence including the company website, emails and purchase orders.
It may be more difficult for the company to trade as suppliers are unlikely to provide credit, instead require upfront payment. The company will need money to continue to trade.
The costs associated with administration can be high and can escalate quickly, if trading the company.
