When a business is under financial pressure, accurate asset values are not a formality; they are the basis on which every major decision gets made. Whether a company pursues a Company Voluntary Arrangement, enters administration, or faces liquidation depends partly on what its assets can actually realise. Secured lenders, creditors, and insolvency practitioners all need figures they can rely on and defend.
BTG Eddisons Asset Sales provides rapid-turnaround asset valuations for restructuring and insolvency proceedings across a wide range of industrial and commercial sectors. Valuations are led by Richard Temple MRICS, a Chartered Machinery Valuation Surveyor and Registered Valuer registered with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors since 2011, with direct experience working alongside insolvency practitioners, administrators, and secured lenders.

The numbers matter. Whether a company pursues a CVA, enters administration, or faces liquidation depends partly on what capital its assets are able to generate. Secured lenders base their stance on security valuations, creditors weighing rescue proposals need figures to compare against liquidation scenarios, and administrators fulfilling their duties under the Insolvency Act 1986 need defensible figures that demonstrate they have acted in creditors' collective interests.
Insolvency practitioners are also required to follow Statements of Insolvency Practice when conducting appointments, several of which touch directly on the obligation to obtain and consider asset valuations. Without reliable figures, decision-making becomes guesswork. With them, all parties can assess their positions rationally.
Licensed insolvency practitioners appointed to cases must value assets accurately to discharge their duties and demonstrate they have acted properly throughout their appointments. Our valuations are prepared with the IP's reporting requirements in mind, giving practitioners clear, defensible figures for creditor communications.
Directors facing financial distress need to understand what their assets are genuinely worth before deciding between rescue options and formal proceedings. An independent valuation supports informed decision-making at a critical time. Directors should take advice from a licensed insolvency practitioner or solicitor before acting on any valuation in a distress context.
Banks and finance providers holding charges over business assets instruct valuations to quantify their exposure and assess whether to support a restructuring or enforce their security. We provide both market value and forced sale assessments so lenders can model different recovery scenarios.
Advisers guiding distressed businesses through their options use independent valuations to build a realistic picture of what is available and what different outcomes are likely to deliver for creditors.

An expert visits the site to carry out an on-site inspection. Each asset is assessed individually, with its condition and saleability recorded and photographed for the report.
The resulting valuation report sets out each asset with a description, condition note, photograph, and assessed value on the agreed basis. Market value and forced sale value are both included where required.
Reports are prepared to the professional standard that insolvency practitioners, creditors, and courts expect.
Our insolvency valuations are prepared by an experienced valuer with direct knowledge of the time pressures and evidential standards that insolvency appointments require. Here is what we bring:

Accurate valuations give insolvency practitioners, creditors, and secured lenders the figures they need to make defensible decisions about disposal strategy, creditor distributions, and whether rescue options are viable. A report prepared by a named, qualified valuer provides the evidential basis practitioners need to demonstrate compliance with their duties under the Insolvency Act 1986.
