Cross-border trusts in flux: understanding the implications of the EU's proposed insolvency directive for trustees. [Blog post]

Mak, Charles Ho Wang

Abstract

Insolvency law has emerged as a complex yet vital domain in a world increasingly entangled by complex financial transactions and obligations. It acquires a new layer of complexity when we turn our gaze towards cross-border insolvencies, and in the middle of it all stand the insolvency practitioners—also known as trustees in bankruptcy. In my recent article, entitled 'Trusts Across Borders: Steering through the European Union's Insolvency Directive and Its Implications for Trustees', I explore the multifaceted roles and responsibilities of trustees in cross-border insolvencies, particularly in the context of the European Union ("EU").
