Commentary on the European Insolvency Regulation cover

This second edition of Commentary on the European Insolvency Regulation expands upon what has become a widely cited work on the recast EU Regulation on Insolvency Proceedings. It incorporates important developments in the case law since the Regulation was recast in 2015, as well as other significant updates. As with the first edition, it provides a detailed article-by-article commentary on the Regulation, written by a group of expert scholars and practitioners from a range of European jurisdictions. Drawing on a rich body of CJEU and national case law, as well as scholarly developments, analysis of the Regulation is accompanied by a chapter explaining the background to the Regulation's enactment and recasting, identifying its key features, and examining the relationship between the Regulation and new European Restructuring Directive. As well as retaining the distinctive features of the first edition--the multi-jurisdictional focus of the expert contributors, and in-depth examination of the legislative provision and case law --the second edition offers new analysis of issues that have arisen since the publication of the first edition in 2016, including updates on the impact of Brexit and the passage of the European Restructuring Directive in 2019. This edition of Commentary on the European Insolvency Regulation is therefore a key new work for all those who advise or research on the topic of European insolvency law.

Overall, it is clear that this commentary continues to rest on very solid foundations. For that and many other reasons, it should prove an enduring work of reference in the field of international insolvency for academics, judges, practitioners and policymakers alike. * Paul Omar, Technical Research Coordinator, INSOL Europe, Eurofenix *
This book is a 'must read' for every insolvency and restructuring professional who wishes to learn about how the new regulation should and will be applied ... a fantastic contribution to the existing library of cross-border insolvency publications, as it is possibly the first work on the EIR that presents a complete pan-European perspective and that expresses insights of experts from multiple European jurisdictions. Furthermore, as this commentary is published prior to the recast EIR coming into force, it will be vital for legal professionals when facing cross-border European cases once the new regulation arrives. * José Carles, Global Restructuring Review. *
This is the leading work in English on the Recast EIR. * Prof. Dr. Peter Mankowski, GPR Law Review *
Professor Bork and Dr van Zwieten have maintained academic rigour in the contributions from a dozen leading scholars and practitioners, producing an authoritative, useful and readable analysis of the legislation. * Chris Laughton, Eurofenix *
It is clear that this commentary rests on very solid foundations. For that and many other reasons, it should prove an enduring work of reference in the field of international insolvency for scholars, the judiciary, practitioners and policy-makers alike. * Paul J. Omar, International Insolvency Review *
