Introduction

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause significant disruptions in the US and global economy, it is likely that US companies experiencing financial difficulties will seek to restructure their debts and other obligations. In anticipation of such restructurings, this article provides a brief overview of voluntary restructurings in the US for non-US parties with investments in or commercial relationships with US companies.

Directive 2019/1023 of 20 June 2019 on preventive restructuring frameworks, on discharge of debt and disqualifications, and on measures to increase the efficiency of procedures concerning restructuring, insolvency and discharge of debt, and amending Directive (EU) 2017/1132 ("Directive on restructuring and insolvency")

La crisis económica en la que se vio sumida España desde el año 2007, y de la que poco a poco el país se viene sobreponiendo, ha espoleado a los 'players' del mercado de reestructuraciones para salir de su zona de confort e introducirse en caminos hasta ahora apenas transitados en nuestro país.
