Within Europe, we are facing similar challenges: The suspension of insolvency filing obligations in the wake of the pandemic and the introduction of preventive restructuring under the StaRUG. At the same time, Brussels is setting course towards further harmonization.

To what extent is the desired increase in the harmonization of national insolvency regulations helpful? We will address this question together with those responsible at the Commission and other experts who are closely involved in the project.

Therefore, the EIRC will again be an event that not only highlights future developments in insolvency and restructuring law at an early stage, but also allows them to be discussed with those involved in the reform.

The EIRC is organized by the Working Group Insolvency and Restructuring of the German Bar Association (Deutscher Anwaltsverein / Arbeitsgemeinschaft Insolvenzrecht & Sanierung) and its European Committee chaired by Daniel Friedemann Fritz, partner for restructuring in Dentons’ Frankfurt office. Daniel served as Private Expert to the European Commission in relation to the introduction of a preventive restructuring framework and now for the harmonization of European insolvency law.

Topics

We are looking forward to several international experts speaking on the following topics:

• Current developments: Dynamic legal development in the EU between COVID-19 pandemic and restructuring framework
• Next reform projects: Harmonization of insolvency law and the European Business Code
• Struggling trade: Competition of restructuring instruments
• Effective Practice: Opportunities for Participation in Foreign Restructuring and Insolvency Proceedings  
• New case law: Guidelines of the ECJ in insolvency law
• Current and daily practice in cross-border cases 

Please note that this event will be held in English and that you will be charged a conference fee of 230 € per person (including conference material).
