View it in your browser August 2022 SHARE THIS In this edition of Restructuring Watch, we reflect on: • The first restructuring plan to cram down HMRC. • Recent government reports on certain UK restructuring processes and learnings from the first six-months of the National Security and Investment Act 2021. • Government consultations on a crypto special administration regime and prospective additions to the cross-border recognition and insolvency framework. • A reminder of the recent important milestone in the Galapagos cross-border insolvency battle.
On 30 June 2022, the English court handed down judgment and made a winding-up order in respect of Galapagos S.A., marking an important milestone in an almost three-year cross-border insolvency battle involving the English, German and European courts.
The decision also provides helpful guidance on the application of the Recast European Insolvency Regulation post-Brexit, as well as the extent to which pre-Brexit jurisprudence should still be considered retained in, or relevant to, English law.
