Revised Insolvency Code of Ethics (6 August 2025)
The Joint Insolvency Committee together with the Recognised Professional Bodies, ICAEW, ICAS and IPA, have approved and issue an updated Code of ethics applicable to insolvency practitioners (the revised Code) which will come into effect on 1 October 2025.
