What is the difference between receivership and judicial liquidation?

The purpose of receivership is to save the business by adopting a plan (recovery plan by way of continuation or sale plan).

The aim of the receivership procedure is to maintain business and employment. 

Judicial liquidation proceedings are initiated when there is no longer any possibility of the company being able to recover.

This involves organising the closure of the business and selling its assets to pay off its creditors.
