Administrative receivers are appointed by the holder of a floating charge (normally a bank) which gives them security over the majority of a company's assets. The administrative receiver has powers to manage the business in order to realise the floating charge holder's security and this may also result in the sale of the business to a third party.
It should be noted that holders of floating charges dated after 15 September 2003 will not be able to appoint an administrative receiver.
