Ach, it’s so ridiculous. An enduring theme in the UK is that if you can do your job well, you can do your job well. Bankruptcy bars you from directorships, but doesn’t stop you working.
The American practice is really clutching at straws, and diminishes the talent pool to … errr … wealthy kids from established famlies …
Personally, I’d hire a bankrupt person happily. I just wouldn’t give them the cheque book.
