    Reviving the Corporate Rescue Bill in Hong Kong
    2023-08-01

    Against the backdrop of Hong Kong's emergence from the pandemic and the government's efforts to entice tourists and investors back, there arises a question as to whether the government might consider reviving the corporate rescue bill.

    2023-08-01

    Het faillissement van Heiploeg uit 2014 is een bron van principiële geschillen en procedures.
