The Supreme Court of India (“Supreme Court”) in Ujaas Energy Limited vs. West Bengal Power Development Corporation Limited1 held that while claims not forming part of an approved resolution plan stand extinguished, a limited right to raise the defence of a set off in respect of such claim may still survive, depending on the terms of the resolution plan and in the facts and circumstances of each case.
The decision confirms that ranking depends on when the claim arises not when it is assigned
The Spanish Supreme Court, in its ruling 22/2026, has addressed a frequently contested question in Spanish insolvency law: whether the subordination of a claim based on the creditor being a related party should be determined at the time the claim originates or at the time it is later acquired by assignment.
引言
2025年10月26日,锦州银行发布公告称,由工商银行收购承接其相关资产、负债、业务、网点和人员,这一公告标志着这家总资产曾超过8,000亿元的东北城商行在历经六年漫长风险处置后,最终全面并入国有大行体系。从2018年不良资产“爆雷”、巨亏45亿元,到2019年爆发严重同业挤兑危机,再到引入工行、信达、长城等战略投资者、剥离1,500亿元不良资产、要约收购退市,直至被工行全面收购承接,锦州银行的案例为城商行风险处置提供了样本,本文以锦州银行的危机来源为切入点,梳理风险处置各阶段的法律要点。
01.锦州银行经营危机的来源(一) 公司治理机制失效
锦州银行股权结构呈现高度分散特征,其股东以民营企业为主,上百家股东中无单一主体持股比例超过5%,未能形成有效的制衡机制,且多数股东同时为锦州银行的授信客户,其入股的核心诉求是通过持股身份获取信贷资源的便利通道。股权结构的缺陷最终导致锦州银行公司治理体系彻底崩溃。
(二) 信贷审批与风险管理体系失灵
Liability management exercises, sometimes dubbed ‘creditor-on-creditor violence’, are now a defining feature of the global restructuring market. Their growing use has been matched by an increase in related litigation, and has brought with it what is for many restructuring professionals a whole new world of disclosure.
How does disclosure work in four key jurisdictions - England & Wales, New York, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg?

I. WHY THIS TOPIC IS IMPORTANT
In modern supply chains, companies depend on reliable suppliers. When a company’s direct supplier (contractor) starts facing financial difficulties, problems can escalate quickly. If the contractor can no longer pay its own upstream supplier, that upstream supplier may halt deliveries - triggering production shutdowns that cascade through the entire supply chain. This, in turn, may lead to (actually financially sound) downstream companies facing substantial liability exposure vis-à-vis their own customers.
The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (Amendment) Act, 2026 (Act) received presidential assent on 6 April 2026, and was published in the Official Gazette as Act No. 6 of 2026. It introduces major reforms, the salient features of which are summarised below:
This week’s TGIF considers the recent decision of the New South Wales Court of Appeal in Ample Skill Ltd v Reidy[2025] NSWCA 32, in which rule 75-250 of the Insolvency Practice Rules (Corporations) 2016 (Cth)(the Insolvency Rules) was construed by an appellate court for the first time.
