BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Directive 2019/1023 (the Directive on restructuring and insolvency) has been transposed into Maltese law by virtue of the Pre-Insolvency Act (among others). The Pre-Insolvency Act establishes a fascinating regulatory framework that provides businesses with various protections when exposed to the likelihood of insolvency, with the ultimate objective of negotiating a restructuring plan that works to the benefit of debtors and creditors alike.
This session will provide a brief summary of the salient regulatory details, before focusing on a practical and solution-driven review of landmark British (the UK having a restructuring framework that is similar to Malta’s) case studies in restructuring, both those which were successful and those which failed – and why.

SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION

The session will be broken into three key sections:

• A brief introduction to the core tenets of the Pre-Insolvency Act
• A summary of the approval thresholds of a restructuring plan and the cross-class cram-down mechanism
• A practical overview of landmark restructuring cases in the EU, with a focus on the UK

Why is the session of relevance to our members?

This session will enable attendees to go beyond a purely technical understanding of the Pre-Insolvency Act, and contextualize Malta’s new restructuring framework by reference to real-life circumstances and concepts that have been established by landmark judgments in the UK.

Target Audience

Accountants and prospective accountants, lawyers, prospective insolvency practitioners, entrepreneurs, business owners and self-employed persons.
