Adieu Sans Frontières: Cross Border Insolvency Post-Brexit

OVERVIEW

Chaired by Chief Insolvency and Companies Court Judge Briggs, which will consider the implications of the post-Brexit insolvency regime for general commercial litigators and practical strategies to deal with those implications. 

Among other matters, the webinar addresses

- The recognition in England of non-English (particularly EU) insolvencies post-Brexit. 
- The consequences of EU-based insolvencies on prospective or pending litigation or arbitration in England
- The consequences of English-based insolvency on prospective or pending litigation or arbitration in the EU.
