Conclusion

The recent Halifax bankruptcy has attracted industry-wide attention.The inspection team visited Halifax’s Australian headquarters right the first time. The surveyors saw that the door of Halifax’s office was closed, and two remaining employees were still working, but no business was going on, and the company logo had been removed.

 The fact that Halifax is now in the bankruptcy process is pretty well established. Investors should wait patiently for the outcome.
