Samenvatting
During the past decade, we have seen major changes in international insolvency law and influential cross-border restructurings. This volume sheds light upon these developments. By exploring a variety of cases across geographic lines, the author provides an overview of key developments and emerging themes in insolvency law around the world.
The past decade has witnessed important developments in international insolvency law and influential cross-border restructurings. In order to advance the law and practice in the field of international insolvency law, it is essential to gain a deeper understanding of these developments and underlying cases. Cross border restructuring & insolvency case studies and international developments sets out to do exactly that.
The first part of this volume contains thirteen case studies of the most prominent cross-border restructurings in various part of the world: Nortel, Agrokor, Abengoa, Noble Group, Stoneway Capital, Vitro, Virgin UK and Australia, LATAM, Aero, Constellation and Steinhoff. These case studies provide insights in various practical elements of modern-day international insolvency law.
Next, the second part then provides an overview of key developments and emerging themes in insolvency law around the world. These segments are geographically organized along the lines of influential jurisdictions (United Kingdom and United States) and the continents of Europe, Latin America and Asia. This work is included in the Series Law of Business and Finance, as published by the Radboud Business Law Institute.
This book marks the 10th anniversary of the NextGen Leadership program of the International Insolvency Institute (III) in 2022. The International Insolvency Institute is a non-profit, limited-membership organization dedicated to advancing and promoting insolvency as a respected discipline in the international field. Its primary objectives include improving international co-operation in the insolvency area and achieving greater coordination among nations in multinational business reorganizations and restructurings.
