Richard Killen

CIRP Licensed Insolvency Trustee Speaker, Author, Podcaster


With 35 years experience in the insolvency field, both as a trustee and as a regulator, as well as a prior 7 years in consumer credit, Richard brings an interesting and perhaps unique perspective to the issues surrounding consumer debt, consumer credit, bankruptcy options and consumer proposals.

He is the author of the book “The Glass Is Half Full- The Positive Side to Debt Relief” and hosts a podcast of the same name.

As a result of the COVID 19 Pandemic and the enormous financial strain and debt many people find themselves in, Richard can talk about solutions and what are the next steps that people should consider.

Richard is available for podcasts, radio and TV interviews by phone, Zoom, Skype or in person.

With a reasonable degree of foresight and planning, coupled to a disciplined approach to day-to-day decisions, there is little reason for anyone to fall into the abyss of financial failure – personal or commercial. But what can we do, as a lender, a borrower, or an advisor when the best laid plans go awry? Better yet, what can be done before this happens?

As a trustee Richard can shed light on what is generally an opaque and mysterious situation, providing insight on how best to avoid pitfalls and minimize losses, at whatever stage the situation may have evolved. It is never too late to turn a glass from half-empty to at least half-full.
