Shareholders must appoint a liquidator during the shareholders’ meeting approving liquidation. If no liquidator is appointed, the Board of Directors assumes the role. Creditors can submit claims within two years of the liquidation announcement, provided there are proceeds available. If proceeds have been distributed, shareholders must return them proportionally to settle creditor claims. Whereas employee termination packages vary based on employee status, service years, and reason for liquidation.
