MAP (Minimal Asset Process)

Minimal Asset Process, (MAP), is a form of bankruptcy and replaced the LILA bankruptcy.

How does a MAP work?

It allows you to write off your unsecured debts in a short period of time if you are on a low income with no disposable income left after covering your essential living costs or your income is only from income dependent benefits. MAP bankruptcy does affect your credit score but remember, if you have already missed any payments to your creditors, your credit will already have been affected. This solution would leave you debt free and in a position to rebuild your credit rating.

  • You live in Scotland.
  • You have not been bankrupt in the last five years.
  • You are not a homeowner.
  • You do not have many large valuable assets, (assets worth £2 000 or less in total and no single asset worth more than £1,000).
  • You have debts between £1,500 and £17,000.
