Kahamelo provides specialised forensic accounting support to liquidators, business rescue practitioners, creditors, financiers and other stakeholders involved in the liquidation, winding-up or restructuring of financially distressed companies.
Our team assists in identifying and tracing assets, investigating potential reckless trading, verifying and quantifying claims, analysing irregular transactions, and reconstructing financial records to establish an entity’s true financial position leading up to liquidation or business rescue.
By combining forensic rigour with a practical understanding of insolvency law and business rescue proceedings, we help clients maximise recoveries, hold responsible parties accountable, and support informed decision-making throughout the process.
Kahamelo assists liquidators and business rescue practitioners in preparing for and conducting insolvency enquiries under Sections 417 and 418 of the Companies Act, including analysing financial records and formulating examination questions to uncover the circumstances leading to a company’s financial collapse.
We trace and identify assets, both locally and internationally, that may have been misappropriated, concealed, transferred, or dissipated prior to business rescue and liquidation, following the movement through accounts, entities, and related parties to support recovery efforts.
Our team assists liquidators, business rescue practitioners, and creditors in preparing, quantifying, verifying, and assessing proof of claims against insolvent estates, ensuring that claims are properly substantiated and supported by the relevant financial and documentary evidence.
Our team investigates the conduct of directors, management and other responsible parties leading up to a company’s liquidation, including allegations of reckless trading, breach of fiduciary duty, and fraudulent or irregular dispositions, to support claims for personal liability or delinquency.
