All’s fair when it comes to business and rescue
It is well known that one of the benefits of business rescue is that it provides breathing room for the company in financial distress through the temporary moratorium on the rights of claimants against the company. The creditors of a company in business rescue are usually found scrambling to determine what their rights are in the event of a debtor going into business rescue.

Therefore, it does not mean that if one is not a creditor of the company, they will not be affected by the business rescue.

A South African commercial bank might look similar to other listed companies on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE), but underneath the surface, their business model is fundamentally different. And that difference matters – especially when things go wrong.
