Judicial Wing Mission Statement & Membership Protocol


The Judicial Wing was founded in 2006 in Bucharest during INSOL Europe's Annual Congress and initially had five members from five different EU Member States. Meanwhile, the membership has increased considerably to 28 sitting judges from 22 EU Member States and 3 sitting judges from European non-member states. The Judicial Committee’s activities are focused on issues related to cross-border insolvencies.

The mission of the Judicial Wing is to foster and share research, learning and experience on matters of common interest and to promote best practice in matters concerning 
  1. the conduct in courts of law of restructuring and insolvency proceedings, and
  2. cross-border cooperation between courts in insolvency and restructuring matters.
In fulfilling this mission the Judicial Wing endeavours to actively promote and encourage young members of the judiciary to become a member of the Judicial Wing.
