International Insolvency

Join a distinguished and experienced group of panelists as they discuss the recognition process and cross-border nuances of chapter 15, including how to prepare a chapter 15 case, strategic considerations and advising non-U.S. clients about the risks and benefits of the chapter 15 recognition process, as well as the cutting-edge legal issues that have arisen now that cross-border insolvencies and chapter 15 have become more prevalent.

A panel of eminent U.S. professionals will discuss current trends in U.S. insolvencies and restructurings, explore current legislation, comment on developments in the financial sector for distressed lending, and highlight any emerging trends.

A working understanding of cross-border restructuring principles has become a mainstay of contemporary practice. This panel will cover cross-border fundamentals, including the application of § 109 to foreign cases, the enforceability of foreign judgments and granting comity in a chapter 15 case involving third-party releases (In re Sino-Forest Corp. and Ad Hoc Group of Vitro Noteholders v. Vitro, S.A.B. de C.V. (In re Vitro S.A.B. de C.V.)).
