簡介
最近在Nuoxi Capital Ltd (In Liquidation in the British Virgin Islands) v Peking University Founder Group Co Ltd [2021] HKCFI 3817一案中，香港法院裁定，儘管香港法院承認維持完好契據（「維好契據」）的提供者在內地所提出的清盤程序並向管理人提供各種協助，但境外債券持有人在維好契據下的權利仍應根據合約的專屬司法管轄權條款在香港裁決。
維持完好安排與釋疑函件類似，都是內地企業支持其附屬公司發行境外債券的常用增強信貸方式。由於維好契據不構成擔保，內地企業集團往往以此規避禁止為境外債務提供抵押的規定。

In the context of insolvency, the principle of "modified universalism" (Universalism) is defined by Lord Sumption in Singularis Holdings v Prince Waterhouse Coopers as:
Can directors or shareholders be required to contribute to the liquidation estate?
What liability can directors or other officers attract in respect of an insolvent company?
The offshore industry is thriving but ESG is adding new priorities both to transactions and to the way firms are being run, according to a new report by Reports Legal featuring Ogier's global managing partner Edward Mackereth.
With record deal activity across service lines this year, Ogier has been busier than ever in the past 12 months.
"Corporate has had a stellar year with all the M&A transactions and SPACs," said Edward.
What categories of transaction can be avoided or set aside?
Who is responsible for seeking orders to set aside such transactions?
This Q&A on avoidance transactions is part of a series on restructuring and corporate recovery jurisdiction in the British Virgin Islands.(1)
What are the principal forms of security in the British Virgin Islands in respect of movable and immovable property?
What is the effect on secured creditors of the commencement of an insolvency procedure?
In relation to a secured party enforcing its rights under a mortgage or charge of shares in a BVI company, the secured party will typically exercise its rights under BVI law to sell the shares or to appoint a receiver in respect of them. Such rights may generally only be exercised after a default has occurred and has continued (without rectification for 14 days following notice of the default) for a period of at least 30 days. These time periods can be shortened by contractual agreement in the relevant security document.
