    Dutch Scheme on schedule?
    2020-04-02

    The coronavirus (covid-19) has an unprecedented impact worldwide, and in the Netherlands as well. In addition to the major measures taken by the Dutch government, debt restructuring at companies is necessary to prevent bankruptcies. Rapid implementation of the Court Approval of a Private Composition (Prevention of Insolvency) Act (WHOA) could help with this.

    2019-11-28

    The liability of directors of major organisations receives wide coverage in the press. Examples (in the Netherlands) are Imtech, HDI, FC Twente, Vestia, and Meavita. But the subject really concerns directors of all legal entities, large and small. In this issue of Quoted, we refresh your knowledge of directors' liability and address recent developments, such as case law on `corporate directors' (legal entities which are appointed directors of other entities), the Bill for Management and Supervision of Legal Entities and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

    2019-11-28

    Global Insight - Issue 31, December 2019: WHOA! New Dutch Scheme set to position the Netherlands as a restructuring hub
    2019-12-20

    The Dutch legislator has published a bill for a new pre-insolvency tool, which seeks to combine the best of the UK scheme of arrangement and the US Chapter 11 procedure. The new legislation will be formally called 'The Act regarding the binding approval of debt restructuring agreements'. Among restructuring professionals it is already widely referred to as the WHOA (Wet homologatie onderhands akkoord) or the "Dutch Scheme". Currently, the WHOA is pending final approval by the Dutch parliament and is expected to enter into force on 1 July 2020.

    Coronavirus: surseance van betaling als paardenmiddel voor ondernemingen
    2020-03-20

    Op 17 maart jl. nam de regering uitzonderlijke maatregelen om de economische gevolgen van de corona uitbraak het hoofd te bieden. Met noodmaatregelen probeert de regering ondernemingen overeind te houden. Het blijft onzeker of die maatregelen voldoende financiële ruimte geven om de salarissen en schuldeisers (op termijn) te betalen. We bespreken daarom in deze bijdrage een uiterste redmiddel: de wettelijke procedure van surseance van betaling.
