In the increasingly competitive world of business, recovery solutions for struggling enterprises are vital. In recent years, lawmakers worldwide have turned their attention to this area. Identifying the key provisions to strike an optimal balance of the many interests involved however poses great challenges. Also, legislative harmonization has arisen as a central goal to ease robust financing, but which norms will ultimately emerge as the most effective and widely accepted? This volume explores the question by collecting the ideas and experiences of some of the world’s most prominent insolvency professionals, such as U.S. judges involved in the Enron debacle, the Swissair trustee and other renowned practitioners and scholars. They discuss topics such as the proper trigger criteria for legal relief, whether privileges should be granted to whoever accepts to refinance insolvent ventures, the challenges of cross-border enterprises and groups of related companies, and alternative dispute resolution in insolvency cases. In this collection of papers, these world experts share their views on the “best practices” for insolvency law in the 21st century.
