    New ways of restructuring in Germany
    2020-11-10

    Germany's new restructuring regime is expected to come into force 0n 1 January 2021. At the heart of the new regulation is the introduction of a so-called stabilization and restructuring framework (“SRF”) for companies. In a sea change to the traditional approach, the SRF enables a company to be restructured before insolvency proceedings have to be initiated. It is therefore expected that this new regime will have a major impact on German restructuring practice.

    Neue Möglichkeiten der Restrukturierung
    2020-11-04

    Deutschland erhält ein neues Restrukturierungsrecht, und zwar voraussichtlich ab 1. Januar 2021. Herzstück der im aktuellen Gesetzesentwurf vorgesehenen Neuregelungen ist die Schaffung des sogenannten Stabilisierungs- und Restrukturierungsrahmens („SRR“) für Unternehmen. Der SRR soll die Restrukturierung eines Unternehmens ermöglichen, bevor ein Insolvenzverfahren eingeleitet werden muss. Die Gesetzesänderung wird daher einen großen Einfluss auf die Restrukturierungspraxis haben.

    In the course of implementing EU directive 2019/1023 of 20 June 2019 on preventive restructuring frameworks, the German legislator intends[1], among other things, to provide for (i) a Preventive Restructuring Plan as flexible restructuring tool, (ii) further relief in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, and to make small but important changes to the general provisions of German insolvency code.

    Draft Law for a New German Restructuring Framework
    2020-10-30

    So far, restructurings in Germany have been implemented either by way of consensual preinsolvency solutions or formal and comprehensive insolvency proceedings with court oversight. The EU Restructuring Directive (EU) 2019/1023 of 20 June 2019 paved the way for the implementation of pre-insolvency restructuring proceedings in all EU member states that allow debtors to restructure effectively at an early stage.

    Die große Unbekannte: Insolvenzanfechtung
    2020-10-19

    Die für Geschäftspartner (Gläubiger) eines bankrotten Kaufmanns oder Unternehmens (Schuldner) bereits an sich schlechte Situation wird durch das Recht des Insolvenzverwalters zur Insolvenzanfechtung nach §§ 129 ff InsO vielfach erst richtig ärgerlich. Insolvenzanfechtung bedeutet, dass derjenige, der vorinsolvenzlich noch Leistungen oder auch nur Sicherheiten vom Schuldner erhalten hat, gezwungen sein kann, diese zur Befriedigung der Gläubigergesamtheit wieder herausgeben zu müssen.
