SBR Explained
(Plain English)
Small Business Restructuring is a formal insolvency process under Part 5.3B of the Corporations Act, designed to help eligible small companies compromise historical debts while continuing to trade.
01. We Plan
Directors remain in control of the business while creditors vote on a restructuring plan that sets out how debts will be compromised and repaid over time.
The success of an SBR depends heavily on the quality of the plan. A clear, credible and commercially realistic proposal improves creditor confidence and preserves enterprise value.
02. Our Role
- We prepare the restructuring plan and supporting analysis
- We work alongside the appointed SBR Practitioner
- We protect the accountant–client relationship
- We do not act as the practitioner or take insolvency appointments
Case Study Snapshot
Industry: Construction Services
Employees: 9
Total Liabilities: $620,000
Outcome: Restructure plan approved
A construction services business faced mounting pressure from the ATO and trade creditors despite strong forward work. While the business remained operationally sound, legacy debt had become unsustainable.
SBR Engage worked alongside the accountant and appointed an SBR Practitioner to confirm eligibility, model affordability, and prepare a clear, creditor-ready restructure plan.
The plan was approved, allowing the business to continue trading, retain staff, and compromise unsecured debts to a sustainable level.
