Featuring international expert academics, practitioners and judges, the Research Handbook takes a thematic approach, exploring national and international models for rescue, stakeholders in insolvency, corporate structures and organisational models, specialist process issues, and institutional support, as well as interdisciplinary and cross-field aspects of insolvency and restructuring. Contributions analyse issues from a broad variety of perspectives, including the economic and social aspects of insolvency, and provide a comparative discussion of topics that will further inform global academic debate in this area.

Scholars and students of corporate and insolvency law, commercial law, and law and economics, will find the inter-disciplinary legal, theoretical and jurisprudential discussion invaluable. The analysis of current reform agendas, practical and alternative solutions to common problems, and comparative approach will also be of interest to practitioners and policymakers.

This valuable guide offers detailed, practical advice to decision-makers in companies and businesses interested in market conditions in France, as well as to lawyers advising on the rules which affect insolvency and corporate rescue procedures in France.

Corporate Rescue Procedures in France provides a detailed and accessible analysis of all major issues in French insolvency law and practice. Areas covered in depth include the new regime for corporate voluntary agreements, the relative rights of creditors and their debtor, the take-over and rescue of insolvent companies, the liabilities of directors and the new European Insolvency Conventions. The book also includes comprehensive tables of statutory materials and caselaw, as well as appendices giving details on legislation, timetables and procedural formalities.

"The book will be positively welcomed by practitioners as well as any businesses or persons whose activities in France require a good practical knowledge of the rules applicable to insolvency".
