Jurisdiction over Cross-Border Insolvency Proceedings

Abstract

The analysis of the opening of insolvency proceedings under European Union law involves the identification of incidental rules applicable to the insolvency proceedings with an element of foreignness when it concerns the Member States. In order to ensure a comprehensive understanding of cross-border insolvency proceedings, it is necessary to analyze the relevant rules in the field of private international law, when the international character of the insolvency legal relationship is reflected in relation to another third country of the European Union.
