INSOL Helsinki Joint One Day Seminar 2018
The INSOL Helsinki Joint One Day Seminar 2018 which was jointly organised by INSOL International, INSOL Europe and the Finnish Insolvency Law Association (FILA) was the occasion for the audience to be informed on the main features of the EU Directive proposal on restructuring, insolvency and second chance (‘the Directive proposal’) and to discuss with the panellists the rationale of the tools contained into the Directive proposal and the risk that it could be (too) easily used at the expense of creditors.
 
The One Day Seminar was also the occasion to share two success stories from Finland (national operational business restructuring) and from France (international financial restructuring) as well as the latest developments on group insolvencies under the application of the EIR Recast (in particular the German/Austrian ‘NIKI cases’) and the current work undertaken by the UNCITRAL Working Group V and the establishment of a so-called ‘planning proceeding’.
 
The seminar ended with a focus on two important issues in the Nordic region, namely environmental liabilities in bankruptcy proceedings and debt-equity swaps.
