    The new legal reform on bankruptcy proceedings weakens the position of the privileged creditors
    2014-11-27

    The recent reform of the Bankruptcy Act (operated under RD 11/2014 dated September 5, 2014) intended to extend the bankruptcy agreement modifications in favor of the pre-insolvency restructuring and refinancing agreements which were introduced in March 2014.

    The reform has a special provision for privileged creditors with warranties subject to specific valuation formulas, to be adjusted to the actual financial value of the guaranteed credit. Any portion of debts that exceed this value will not be considered as privileged, but will be ordinarily classified.

    Observaciones a algunas de las propuestas formuladas por los jueces de lo Mercantil de Madrid en el Acuerdo de 7 y 21 de Noviembre, sobre interpretación de las recientes reformas concursales
    2014-12-18

    Análisis GA&P | Diciembre 2014 1 1. ¿Alcanza el efecto de paralización de ejecuciones sobre bienes necesarios del deudor que realiza la comunicación del artículo 5 bis de la Ley Concursal a la efectividad de una medida cautelar acordada contra el patrimonio del deudor? Respuesta: En principio, la mera efectividad de una medida cautelar no puede quedar comprendida en la paralización de las ejecuciones judiciales de bienes o derechos, pues única y exclusivamente está preordenada a garantizar la tutela de fondo que se pide.

    Real decreto-ley 11/2014, de 5 de septiembre, de medidas urgentes en materia concursal
    2014-09-10

    Pocas veces una legislación “moderna” (recordemos que el texto original de la Ley Concursal es de 2003) ha sido objeto de tanta modificación (en sus diez años de vigencia lleva más de 16 modificaciones). Lo que es seguro es que no será la última, de hecho en las próximas semanas verá la luz la Ley por la que se adoptan medidas urgentes en materia de refinanciación y reestructuración de deuda empresarial (procedente del Real Decreto-ley 4/2014, de 7 de marzo), un auténtico ejemplo de “reforma de la reforma”.

    2014-09-15
    1. Introduction

    On 7 September 2014, Royal Decree Act 11/2014 on urgent measures in insolvency matters (“RD 11/2014”) came into force, introducing important changes in the Spanish Insolvency Act (“SIA”), especially regarding incourt proceedings, whether within a composition or a liquidation stage. This piece of legislation followed Royal Decree 4/2014 (“RD 4/2014), which introduced equivalent measures for preinsolvency restructurings.

    Further amendments to Spanish Insolvency Act now effective
    2014-09-17

    On September 5, 2014, Spain enacted urgent measures to facilitate restructurings and avoid the insolvency of companies that, under the previous regime, might have been forced to enter into an insolvency process ("RDl 11/2014"). RDl 11/2014 modifies several provisions of the Spanish Insolvency Act (the "Act"). The objective of the reform is to improve the legal framework that governs voluntary arrangements between creditors and the sale of distressed businesses outside of insolvency by removing obstacles that have previously impeded the successful reorganization of insolvent companies.
