Lender Failure - What Happens?

Hi all
I have an unsecured personal loan with a lender that I hear may be in difficulties. I don't know the exact amount owed but it's about 9k and I pay about £120 a month - I think there are 7 or so years to go!
What would happen if the lender "goes under"? I am fully prepared to pay off the remainder of the debt, but to have to stump it up in one go who be a little unpalettable!
Anybody here familiar with the form in these situations?
Thanks in advance

Another company would undoubtedly step in to take over the loan book. If a company were to fold the liquidaters would certainly find a buyer.
You would then continue under the same terms and conditions.I am a former Broker, former IFA and former compliance officer, for my sins.
However, I have since seen the light.0 -
Excellent thankyou I thought as much.
Thanks again
