SSM Receiver's Report and Accounts Filing Form

SSM Receiver's Report and Accounts Filing Form

When a company enters receivership in Malaysia, court-appointed receivers face strict statutory obligations under the Companies Act 2016. Filing accurate receiver's reports and accounts with the Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia (SSM) is not just a regulatory requirement—it's essential for maintaining transparency with creditors, stakeholders, and the courts.

Our SSM Receiver's Report and Accounts Filing Form template simplifies this complex compliance process, giving insolvency practitioners, corporate recovery specialists, and legal professionals a structured, efficient way to submit receivership documentation to SSM.

Why receivership reporting matters in Malaysia

Under Sections 386 and 387 of the Companies Act 2016, receivers and receiver-managers must file periodic reports with SSM detailing the state of the company's affairs, asset realisations, distributions to secured creditors, and ongoing operations during the receivership period. These reports serve multiple critical purposes:

• Regulatory compliance: Meeting SSM filing deadlines avoids penalties and potential legal complications
• Creditor transparency: Keeping secured and unsecured creditors informed of asset realisations and distribution priorities
• Court accountability: Providing evidence of proper discharge of receiver duties and fiduciary responsibilities
• Stakeholder confidence: Demonstrating professional administration of the receivership process

Missing filing deadlines or submitting incomplete documentation can result in SSM penalties, court sanctions, and damage to professional reputation—risks that insolvency practitioners cannot afford.

Built for Malaysian insolvency professionals

This Paperform template is specifically designed for the Malaysian regulatory environment, incorporating the exact data points and documentation requirements expected by SSM during receivership proceedings. Whether you're a licensed insolvency practitioner with the Malaysian Department of Insolvency, a chartered accountant handling corporate recovery, or a legal firm managing receivership appointments, this form streamlines your statutory reporting obligations.

The form captures essential information including:

• Receiver and company identification: MyKad/passport details, SSM registration numbers, appointment dates, and debenture references
• Statement of affairs: Current asset valuations, liability classifications, and preferential creditor details
• Asset realisations: Details of properties sold, collections made, and proceeds distributed during the reporting period
• Receipts and payments: Comprehensive accounting of all funds received and disbursed by the receiver
• Creditor distributions: Documentation of payments to secured, preferential, and unsecured creditors
• Ongoing operations: Trading activities, employee matters, and operational decisions made during receivership

The structured format ensures you capture all required information in your first pass, reducing the back-and-forth revisions that often plague manual document preparation.

From submission to workflow automation

While this form handles the data collection and initial submission, Paperform's integration ecosystem lets you build a complete receivership administration workflow. Connect submissions to your document management system, automatically notify stakeholders of filing completion, or trigger follow-up tasks in your practice management software.

For firms handling multiple receivership appointments simultaneously, Stepper can automate the entire post-submission workflow. Once a receiver files their report through Paperform, Stepper can automatically generate SSM-compliant PDF reports, route them for partner review, send confirmation emails to the court and creditors, update your compliance tracking database, and schedule the next filing deadline reminder—all without manual intervention.

For receivership appointments requiring creditor approval or court authorisation for specific actions, Papersign integrates seamlessly to convert submission data into formal approval documents. Generate consent resolutions, court applications, or creditor notification letters directly from the filed information, send them for digital signature, and maintain a complete audit trail linking the original report to all subsequent approvals.

Professional, compliant, and efficient

This template uses Paperform's document-style editor to create a form that feels more like completing a professional receivership report than filling out a generic web form. The clean, organised layout mirrors the structure of traditional SSM filings, making it immediately familiar to experienced practitioners while providing helpful guidance for those newer to receivership administration.

Conditional logic ensures that only relevant sections appear based on the type of receivership (receiver vs. receiver-manager), the stage of proceedings (initial vs. subsequent reports), and the nature of realisations made during the period. This keeps the form concise and focused, reducing completion time while ensuring nothing gets overlooked.

File upload fields accommodate supporting documentation—audited accounts, asset valuation reports, court orders, and creditor correspondence—keeping everything centralized and organised for SSM submission and your own case files.
