    Protection of Creditor’s Rights under the Chinese Bankruptcy Law - Revocable Transfers and Preferential Payments
    2017-03-13

    Chinese bankruptcies have surged recently as the government uses the legal system to deal with “zombie” companies and reduce industrial overcapacity as part of a broader effort to restructure the economy. According to figures from the Supreme People’s Court, Chinese courts accepted 5,665 bankruptcy cases in 2016, an increase of 53.8% from the previous year1. As the Chinese government and the courts become more receptive to bankruptcies, without a mature market-based credit system in place, the risks heighten that debtors and creditors could try to game the bankruptcy process.

    如何看待上市公司破产重整
    2016-05-13

    破产重整,实践中也称之为司法重组、法庭内重组、破产保护,是在人民法院主导下进行的企业重组活动,是《企业破产法》规定的三种程序之一。与破产清算程序不同,破产重整程序旨在帮助限于困境的企业脱离困境、实现重生。自《企业破产法》于2007年6月1日实施以来,沪深两市已有49家上市公司实施了破产重整,其中47家已完成重整。此外,部分从沪深两家交易所退市的公司也实施了破产重整。从实践来看,破产重整的上市公司或者退市公司多数具有债务负担沉重、持续经营能力较弱、盈利能力较差的特点。从结果来看,破产重整程序确实起到了拯救困难企业的积极作用。长航凤凰(SZ,000520)、长航油运5(400061)是近年来通过破产重整程序实现企业脱困复兴的典型案例。
