Hi...

With a company, in legal terms the business is to be treated as a seperate entity from it's shareholders/ formers. In liquidation you are not responsible for the comapny debts. It is the company going bankrupt or to be disolved and not your own bankruptcy.

If you were a sole trader then the business is not to be treated as a seperate entity and you will always be responsible for the business debts unless declared bankrupt.
If you have signed personal guarantees, then you are liable these until you either settle the debt or are made bankrupt
