    Insolvenzantragspflicht in Zeiten von Corona
    2020-04-07

    Was ist zu beachten?

    Die Pandemie trifft die Wirtschaft mit voller Wucht und ein Ende ist weiterhin nicht absehbar. Um eine ungeordnete Insolvenzwelle zu vermeiden, hat der Gesetzgeber schnell reagiert und mit dem am 27. März 2020 in Kraft getretenen COVID-19-Insolvenz-Aussetzungsgesetz (COVInsAG) die Insolvenzantragspflicht zunächst bis zum 30. September 2020 suspendiert. Per Verordnung kann die Suspendierung bis zum 31. März 2021 verlängert werden.

    Germany protects businesses against insolvency during pandemic
    2020-04-02

    The German government has moved quickly and decisively to protect businesses from the short-term impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. A new law was passed by parliament using remote voting procedures and comes into today, 27 March 2020. The Covid-19 Suspension of Insolvency Law (COVInsAG) provides a protective shield for businesses against the economic fallout caused by the extraordinary measures taken to limit the spread of the SARS- CoV 2 virus which causes the illness we now know as Covid-19.

    The law addresses three main areas:

    Covid-19: update for borrowers and lenders in Germany
    2020-03-27

    In light of the growing pandemic of COVID-19 the German government has decided on a number of unprecedented restrictions for all areas of private and business life which were unimaginable just a few weeks ago. As a result, many production facilities and businesses had to shut down. While the consequences for many companies are already dramatic, the full impact on the economy is still unpredictable as it is unclear how long the current restrictions will subsist.

    Hotel contracts - Deferred or suspended rent due to Corona
    2020-03-27

    Does the owner bear the risk in case of bankruptcy?

    Due to the tense situation in the hotel industry, various lessees are currently approaching their lessors asking for deferral or abatement of rent payments for the period ahead. There are many suggestions for possible compromises - but the insolvency law situation must always be taken into account in order not to create any risks for tenants or lessors. The comments in this article apply equally to hotel usufructuary leases.

    Currently discussed compromises
