- The PRC Enterprise Bankruptcy Law: The People's Work in Progress
The Enterprise Bankruptcy Law, which became effective on June 1, 2007, is a complex commercial statute that features, among many notable developments, provisions enabling the reorganization of not just state-owned enterprises but any troubled “enterprise legal person.” The new law incorporates many of the most advanced techniques from the restructuring laws of developed nations.
While the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law makes it easier for Chinese companies to obtain credit in international markets and for foreign parties to invest with more confidence in China’s markets, the new law is still a work in progress, as many of its aspects remain unclear and untested.
The authors undertake a systematic review of the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law’s major provisions, from the comparative perspective of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in particular, providing insights and practical recommendations on its meaning and possible application. Puiblished by Beard Books.
