Tom D'Arcy and Jonathan James Beard of BTG Begbies Traynor (Central) LLP were appointed joint liquidators to Saturn Finance Limited on 18 May 2026, placing the Finchley-based bridging finance intermediary into a creditors' voluntary liquidation.
A creditors' voluntary liquidation is an insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the directors' request, without a court order. It is the single largest stream of UK corporate insolvency by volume.
The company
Saturn Finance Limited is registered at 2nd Floor, 314 Regents Park Road, Finchley, London, N3 2JX. Companies House classifies its trade under SIC code 64999, described as financial intermediation not elsewhere classified. The company was incorporated on 21 August 2020 under the name Saturn Bridging Limited, which it held until 29 January 2025 when it became Saturn Finance Limited.
The liquidators
D'Arcy holds IP number 10852 and Beard holds IP number 9552. An IP number is the licence number issued by an insolvency practitioner's recognised professional body, identifying the individual practitioner. Both are licensed and practise through BTG Begbies Traynor (Central) LLP.
As joint liquidators, either may act alone unless the terms of the appointment specify otherwise. Their role is to realise the company's assets and distribute the proceeds to creditors.
The director
The sole director recorded at Companies House is Paresh Shantilal Raja, who has held that position since the company's incorporation on 21 August 2020.
Charges
No outstanding secured charges are registered against Saturn Finance Limited at Companies House, meaning there are no secured creditors with a charge over the company's assets.
The CVL was published in the London Gazette on 26 May 2026. Creditors wishing to submit a claim should contact the joint liquidators at BTG Begbies Traynor (Central) LLP using a proof of debt form. A proof of debt is the formal claim form a creditor submits to the liquidators evidencing the amount owed.
Common questions
Are you owed money by Saturn Finance Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Saturn Finance Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Saturn Finance Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Saturn Finance Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
