IVA Protocol IVA Terms and Conditions

During 2007 industry specialists including our Insolvency practitioner, Bev Budsworth, The British Bankers Association plus their creditor members and representatives from charitable sector contributed to four working parties to produce a protocol for straight forward consumer IVA’s.

The protocol was rolled out on 25 January 2008 and aimed to simplify the process but particularly to help make the process as fair as possible for both debtors and creditors.

The Debt Advisor uses the Protocol terms for consumer IVA’s. We also use protocol terms for IVA’s for self employed however, generally these IVA’s are not protocol compliant. 

The 2008 IVA Protocol (25th January 2008) version can be accessed here 

The 2010 IVA Protocol (Updated 1st May 2010) can be accessed here
