A liquidator is a person or entity that liquidates something—generally assets. When assets are liquidated, they are sold on the open market for cash or other equivalents. The liquidator is legally empowered to act on behalf of the company in various capacities. A liquidator refers to an officer who is specially appointed to wind up the affairs of a company when the company is closing—typically when the company is going bankrupt. Assets of a company are sold by the liquidator and the resulting funds are used to pay off the company's debts. In some jurisdictions, a liquidator may also be referred to as a trustee, such as a bankruptcy trustee. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/l/liquidator.asp#:~:text=A%20liquidator%20is%20a%20person,that%20liquidates%20something%E2%80%94generally |
