Amendments to the Financial Restructuring Framework Agreement (the "Framework Agreement"), which was drafted by the Turkish Banks Association (the "TBA") within the scope of the Regulation Regarding the Restructuring of Debts Owed to the Financial Sector (the "Regulation"), were distributed to banks and other financial institutions to be executed.
In Berryman v Zurich Australia Ltd [2016] WASC 196 it was decided that a bankrupt's entitlement to claim a TPD benefit under a life insurance policy is not an entitlement that is divisible amongst the bankrupt's creditors, and therefore such an entitlement does not vest in the Official Trustee in bankruptcy. Tottle J of the Supreme Court of Western Australia ruled that the bankrupt insured could continue an action in his own name to recover the TPD benefit. Life insurers may need to adjust their claims' payment practices in light of the Berryman decision.
