    Supreme Court ruling of November 18. 2015. No. 630/2015: Royal Decree - Act 5/2005 is only applicable to contractual set-off agreements with more than one financial transaction
    2016-02-09

    The SC adopts a decision on the inclusion of contractual set-off agreements that document a single financial transaction within the scope of application of Royal Decree-Act 5/2005 and on the insolvency classification of the credits resulting from financial swap, thus settling the disparity of criteria that existed in our lower case law with respect to such matters.

    Judgment no. 708/2015 of the Spanish Supreme Court (Civil Division) of 21 December 2015
    2016-02-11

    Privilege bestowed on (syndicated) creditors instigating the insolvency proceedings against the debtor

    Preamble

    Equality among all creditors (the so-called par conditio creditorum) is a basic principle under Spanish insolvency rules. Only specific exceptions envisaged in the Spanish insolvency law allow for a particular creditor to take precedence over others in the recovery of its claims against the debtor.

    Generally speaking, the following ranking applies to insolvency claims (excluding predeductible claims):

    Some operating rules concerning pledges of future claims in insolvency proceedings
    2016-02-25

    The amendment to art. 90(1)(6) of the Insolvency Act 22/2003 (abbrev. LCON) by the Public Sector (Legal Regime) Act 40/2015 was welcomed almost enthusiastically by most market agents. It was felt that the inconsistent treatment bestowed on pledges of future claims (hereinafter, ‘PFC’) would finally be a thing of the past. I myself am not altogether convinced that this is the case, being able to envisage more than one way an insolvency judge, averse to this type of security interests, can dampen the aforementioned enthusiasm by way of a not overly absurd interpretation of the new provision.

    Algunas reglas operativas sobre la prenda de créditos futuros en el concurso
    2016-02-26

    Con la reforma del artículo 90.1.6.º de la Ley Concursal (LCon) dispuesta por la Ley 40/2015 se generalizó un casi entusiasta clamor entre los operadores del sector. Se consideraba que quedaba definitivamente resuelto el perverso historial con- cursal de las prendas sobre créditos futuros. Yo no lo veo tan claro y puedo imaginarme más de un modo por el que un juez concursal averso a este tipo de garantías puede arruinar aquel entusiasmo por vía de una interpretación no totalmente absurda del precepto nuevo.

    Competence of the Magistrate of the Mercantile Court Regarding Social Security Debts as Part of Insolvency Proceedings
    2016-01-19

    The Provincial Court of Zaragoza has ruled on an appeal lodged by the General Treasury of Social Security against a Mercantile Court decision approving a liquidation plan that considered the transfer of the insolvent company as a productive unit and exonerated the buyer from social security debts.

    The legal issue to consider was whether the magistrate of the Mercantile Court had the power to declare the buyer of an insolvent company exempt from paying the social security debts acquired prior to said transfer, as it did.
