NZThe High Court in New Zealand has placed six companies linked to the Rangiora-based investment firm Chance Voight into liquidation, ruling them insolvent and operating an unsustainable business model. The Financial Markets Authority (FMA) requested the court to appoint liquidators, citing concerns over mismanagement and the inability of the companies to meet their financial obligations. A hearing in late June saw the absence of Chance Voight director Bernard Whimp, and the court confirmed the insolvency based on evidence showing a significant shortfall for investors and a negative net asset position of nearly $12 million. PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) has been appointed as liquidators for the six companies, while the FMA continues its investigation into the case.
