Insolvency Practitioner Denys Lykhopiok notes that registration of a company's location at such addresses may negatively affect its reputation when planning cooperation. "In my practice, I have encountered a frequent phenomenon that the location of a bankrupt company turns out to be the place of mass registration. In particular, such re-registration often occurs on the initiative of managers and business owners who are trying to avoid financial responsibility on the eve of bankruptcy proceedings. Sometimes, such developments can be planned even from the very beginning of the company's operations," he said.
