| Abstract
|
:
|
Insolvency law reform has become a subject of public urgency in many countries in the past two decades and particularly in much of Asia over the last ten years. This volume provides an overview of insolvency laws and related rules and procedures in the countries of East Asia. The book comprises two introductory chapters dealing with issues, such as legal culture and cross-border insolvency, before examining the fourteen principal jurisdictions in the region. Each chapter addresses the key themes of different insolvency regimes, such as: the legal system and culture; personal insolvency laws; corporate insolvency rules; court based schemes of arrangement; winding up procedures; liquidators; enforcement; and offences. This title will be an invaluable guide to academics, practitioners and policy-makers working in the areas of comparative and commercial law.
