Expedited Corporate Debt Restructuring in the EU cover

This is the first book to provide a complete comparative analysis of expedited corporate debt restructuring alternatives in the European Union. The work considers the different options available to a company facing a distress scenario and focuses on the options that provide expedited solutions to these issues. The techniques considered in full include: (1) out-of-court reorganization or (non-insolvency process-related) private workouts; (2) pre-packaged reorganization plans; and, (3) pre-arranged or pre-negotiated reorganization plans. The merits and suitability of each technique are considered and case studies are used to illustrate these points in each chapter. A considerable feature of the work is the jurisdiction analysis which allows the reader to compare the law and practice related to each method in each of the EU member states. Each country chapter sets out the relevant legal framework, illustrates its practical application and highlights potential problems through the use of case studies. The aim of the book is to work as a toolkit, a first point of reference for anyone dealing with companies in distress in the EU. In addition to the jurisdictional analysis, the thematic chapter provide an introduction to the techniques discussed and cover common issues for all EU jurisdictions.

All in all, the work will be very beneficial for insolvency practitioners wishing to know more about the jurisdiction they are negotiating with; for European and national legislators in further amending their legislations; as well as for courts, in cases where they are dealing with two or more jurisdictions, to better understand what is required or possible under domestic law. This is an indispensable book for anyone interested in corporate rescue in the EU. * Professor Dr Bob Wessels, Leiden Law School, International Company and Commercial Law Review *
