    I presume that you are talking about the debtors of the business you are buying? If so, I would have thought that the debt is with the company and would remain with the company after you bought it.

    In the same way the liabilities may well remain with the business - worth checking out.

    Are you buying the business as a whole, or just the assets of an existing business?
