Almost three quarters of people in England and Wales who were in, or had been in, an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) struggled to make their scheduled repayments, according to a survey in 2023. Having to cut back on everyday essentials was a problem faced by 46 percent of those surveyed, while 32 percent had to borrow money to make their IVA payments. An IVA is an insolvency solution whereby an individual in debt agrees a repayment schedule with their creditors, via an insolvency practitioner.
