This comprehensive book evaluates how different countries use pre-packaged insolvency procedures to rapidly restructure struggling companies. It demonstrates how these methods can help to retain company value for creditors, employees and the wider economy. Each chapter provides an in-depth analysis of the design of the relevant national systems, explores the management of deals involving connected parties and reviews both past and present reforms shaping the field.
Key Features:
Bridges theory and practice in structured national chapters
Covers legal frameworks across key European and international jurisdictions
Serves as a reference point for future EU harmonisation initiatives and national law reforms
Highlights best practices and common weaknesses from both established restructuring hubs and developing countries
Pre-Pack Sales and Corporate Rescue is a valuable resource for practitioners and researchers in insolvency, restructuring, company and commercial law, including those pursuing professional qualifications. An essential reference point for future reforms, it is also highly relevant to lawmakers and policymakers restructuring insolvency frameworks, as well as judges involved in insolvency and corporate rescue proceedings.
