the sense that its application results in the setting aside any such transaction. 1 The
remedy is available if the transaction actually defrauds the creditors in that the assets of
the person alienating the property are diminished by such alienation. The action can be
instituted before or after the sequestration of the debtor. However, the following must be

have intended to defraud his creditors (if he received value in respect of the alienation,

Note that the fraud referred to in insolvency cases differs from its criminal meaning (Boraine (2007)

insolvent at the time the disposition was made and intended to defraud his creditors with the disposition
