    2021-04-15

    The recent Court of First Instance decision in Li Yiqing v Lamtex Holdings Limited [2021] HKCFI 622 (11 March 2021) is a landmark decision in cross-border insolvency law in Hong Kong, in which the Court held that when it is considering the recognition of foreign insolvency proceedings, regard should not simply be had to the place of incorporation of the relevant company, but that in a departure from previous practice, the location of the company’s centre of main interest (COMI) is also a factor.

    债务偿还安排计划如导致解除债权人针对第三方之权利,能否获得法院认许?
    2021-04-08

    简介

    债务偿还安排计划是一个重组公司债务的方法,让公司与其债权人或任何类别债权人订立安排 或达成妥协。在香港,香港法例第 622 章《公司条例》第 13 部规管有关安排及妥协。法院可 下令债权人就拟议订立的安排或妥协举行会议,并可在其后认许某安排或妥协,前提是在出席 该会议且有投票的债权人中,占当中价值最少 75%的过半数债权人或类别债权人同意该安排 或妥协。

    在英国,《2006 年公司法》第 26 部列出有关债务偿还安排计划的相关规定。最近在英国 Port Finance Investment Limited [2021] EWHC 378 (Ch) 一案中,英国高等法院重申有关更改针对 第三方之权利及类别组合的原则。
