Question:   I am high tech professional with opportunities to work abroad. Will I have any problems setting up a future consulting business after I declare personal bankruptcy? Will I have any difficulties incorporating my business?

Even if you are bankrupt, you may own shares in a business or incorporate a company. However, you are not allowed to be a director of a corporation while an undischarged bankrupt. Your Trustee will need to review your company before your discharge as this is considered to be an asset of the estate. Or if your company is very successful during the bankruptcy process, the earning will have to be reviewed.

The same is true after your discharge. You are able to incorporate a company if you wish. At that time you could also be a director.
