    The consequences for cross-border insolvencies will largely depend on how Brexit is implemented, but will not affect schemes of arrangement

    Foreword

    Understanding and mastering cross-border insolvency requires a thorough knowledge of the different domestic insolvency regimes, all of which have distinctive procedures and rules on jurisdiction and recognition of foreign proceedings. Creditors and debtors look for the most favourable system: in this framework, the UK insolvency system is usually considered “creditor-focused”.

    2016-09-06

    The Pension Protection Fund (PPF) is responsible for paying compensation to members of defined benefit occupational pension schemes where the scheme is in deficit on a PPF funding basis and the employer becomes insolvent.
