In recent years, it has become increasingly common for companies in North Macedonia to choose arbitration as the method for resolving disputes in cooperation agreements, instead of judicial proceedings, which usually take considerably longer. However, the Macedonian legislature has not fully regulated all the legal aspects related to arbitration procedures.
One key issue that remains unaddressed is the impact of an open bankruptcy proceeding against the debtor registered in North Macedonia on an ongoing arbitration process where the debtor is a respondent.

Canada’s Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (BIA) is designed to give “honest, but unfortunate debtors” a “fresh start” by automatically staying litigation and dealing with the bankrupt’s debts and liabilities in an orderly fashion. But what if the bankrupt was dishonest? Should they be entitled to have litigation stayed and their debts discharged? The BIA contains tools to address this.

私的整理への多数決原理の導入（私的整理の多数決化）は、過去 10 年余りの間に何度か検討されてきたが、現在、経済産業省の主導により、改めて議論が進められている。背景としては、私的整理において金融債権者全員の同意が必要であることが、事業再生の円滑化に向けた課題として指摘されてきたことがある。 2022 年 6 月、自動車部品供給会社であるマレリホールディングス㈱の事業再生 ADR 手続（私的整理の一種）が、一部の外資系金融機関の反対により不成立となった（最終的には、民事再生手続における簡易再生という特則を利用）のは、そのような課題が表面化した例の一つである。

This is the message the courts are sending to office holders seeking approval of their fees. In two recent English High Court decisions, both handed down by HHJ Cawson KC, the courts clearly expect office-holders, as fiduciaries, to produce a sufficient and proportionate level of information to justify the level of fees being claimed.
The High Court has approved a £3bn rescue package for Thames Water to plug the leak in the water company's finances while it seeks to secure a wider restructuring deal.

With the committee of creditors (“CoC”) now driving the resolution process, it has become imperative for “related parties”, likely to sabotage the resolution process of a corporate debtor, to be excluded from the same.
