Details

Whilst Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs) registered between 2012 to 2016 are still ongoing, there is an emerging increasing trend in termination rates for IVAs registered during this time. It is not possible to determine trends for IVAs registered in more recent years as the majority were still ongoing as at 31 December 2020.

However, the percentage of IVAs registered in 2019 that were terminated within one year has decreased to the lowest level since 2014. This partly coincides with the publication of updated guidance for the IVA protocol in April 2020 in response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Sixteen IVA providers accounted for over 90% of new IVAs registered in 2020.
