[ONLINE] Insolvency Law: A Dynamic Legal Framework with Opportunities for Practitioners – 29 January

This session will provide an overview of the ongoing discussions surrounding the proposed harmonisation of insolvency laws across the European Union.  We will explore the feasibility of such harmonisation and its practical implications. While harmonising insolvency laws could potentially unlock capital and support the EU’s green and digital transitions, as well as enhance its overall competitiveness, as outlined in discussions for a 28th regime for the EU, there are important questions about how this would play out in practice. The alignment of insolvency laws could be a crucial tool for the effective functioning of EU capital markets.

Seminar Description

This session will provide an overview of the ongoing discussions surrounding the proposed harmonisation of insolvency laws across the European Union.  We will explore the feasibility of such harmonisation and its practical implications. While harmonising insolvency laws could potentially unlock capital and support the EU’s green and digital transitions, as well as enhance its overall competitiveness, as outlined in discussions for a 28th regime for the EU, there are important questions about how this would play out in practice. The alignment of insolvency laws could be a crucial tool for the effective functioning of EU capital markets.

We will also examine the EU Commission’s proposal for a new directive aimed at harmonising key aspects of insolvency law. This proposal has undergone significant changes through discussions in the Council and Parliament, and we will review how it could be incorporated into Maltese legislation. The primary goal of the proposal is to optimise asset recovery, improve the efficiency of proceedings, and ensure the fair distribution of recovered value.

Additionally, we will see how the new insolvency framework is providing new opportunities for practitioners wishing to widen their expertise in this field, and how the competent authority is addressing this need by once again launching an accreditation course for practitioners interested in obtaining authorisation to act as insolvency practitioners in terms of the Insolvency Practitioners Act.
