A former director of Kroll Buchler Phillips Ltd, Peter has had plenty of financial experience. Now retired from his illustrious career he has written his memoirs, Life After Debt, a hilarious collection of career anecdotes, cartoons and one-liners to illustrate his highly successful role as an Insolvency Practitioner.Peter’s profile rose dramatically when he was appointed the receiver of the late Robert Maxwell’s estate – a case which has its own part in this book and caused a huge press scandal in the early 1990s – and during his career he took over 1,000 formal insolvency appointments in most trades as well as acting as Receiver on behalf of every major UK bank. Rather than providing a dry and factual account, Peter recounts his memories of his unusual career in the City with a wry sense of humour using some of the press cuttings and photos that accompanied his rise to financial success and notoriety. The book offers a ‘behind the scenes’ perspective of the collapse of many household names as well as conjuring up blasts from the past. Witty and personal pictures provide a light-hearted insight into the starker, more severe headlines they portray.A genuinely gripping account of some of the cases and celebrities Peter has had the fortune – or misfortune – to deal with, this book will be well-received by those in the financial industry, working in the City and those in the legal profession.
