Independent Insurance's liquidator PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) will announce on Tuesday whether the deal with brokers over the return of commissions has been accepted.
PwC had insisted on agreement by the vast majority of Independent's 800-plus brokers to the deal if it was to go ahead.
The deadline for responses from brokers closed on Wednesday.
At the time, a source at the liquidator said the response from brokers had been positive, but many were sitting on the fence until the last minute.
However, now sources indicate that the deal looks set to be taken up.
