    Phoenixing... or they might be giving up on PSCs, starting a new career, retiring early. But I think the uncertainty can be enough to bring forward life changes originally planned for the next year or two. All the more where there's a big 'money box'.

    Maybe they're encouraged by articles like this (2nd para from bottom):

    Just a couple of days ago on CUK! Don't disagree with you, just saying.

      Interim Distribution on MVL

      The final distribution will not be sorted by the 6 April if sent for a MVL now, but there is still time to get it sorted to pay a interim distribution.

      The liquidator I use had 28 new cases this week - I am sure CM is expriencing the same!
