Legal Framework for Asset Disposal in Kenya

Navigating the legal landscape for the disposal of assets Kenya requires a thorough understanding of various statutes and regulations. Key among these is the Insolvency Act, 2015, which provides the framework for liquidations and receiverships, dictating the procedures for selling assets of insolvent companies or individuals. For secured creditors, such as banks or financial institutions holding collateral, the chattels mortgage and land registration laws are crucial, outlining the power of sale. The Auctioneers Act (Cap. 486) specifically regulates the conduct of auctioneers, ensuring fair bidding practices and proper handling of sale proceeds. Compliance with tax laws, including capital gains tax, is also essential. Swipe Recoveries Experts Ltd operates strictly within these legal parameters, ensuring every asset disposal adheres to Kenyan statutes and ethical auctioneering standards, from our Nairobi office at International Life Hse, 8th Floor, Mama Ngina Street.
