The PhD thesis "Current Issues in International Insolvency Law" aims to describe and draw attention to the moments that, in the opinion of its author, have had the strongest impact on international insolvency law so far. As such it is chiefly devoted to the analysis of existing regulation in the area of European insolvency law (which is principally based on Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 of 29 May 2000 on insolvency proceedings - the "Old Insolvency Regulation" - and Regulation (EU) 2015/848 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 May 2015 on insolvency proceedings - the "New Insolvency Regulation"), and also provides a selection of the relevant case law which has over time significantly changed the way in which specific issues and instruments related to this area are viewed. To do justice to the complexity of the subject matter, the thesis also discusses the determination of jurisdiction in cross-border insolvency proceedings and recognition of the effects of foreign insolvency proceedings in relations between EU and non-EU countries. The main aim of the thesis is to answer the following questions: which legal documents have had the strongest impact on the current form of international insolvency law; whether and how the interpretation of the concept of centre of a debtor's main...

67 Abstract The topic of this diploma thesis is "Forum Shopping under European Regulation on Insolvency." The forum shopping means deliberate transfer of court proceedings from one EU member state to another under the regulation of EC Council No. 1346/2000, on insolvency proceedings. Forum shopping has been immensely developed recently which is evidenced by the fact that British courts have been facing motions for insolvency proceedings regarding debtors with major link to a non-UK country. I have chosen this topic because forum shopping often happens in real word and Czech expert literature keeps quite on this topic. The Regulation on Insolvency is linked to partly universal effect within the European Union. This means that insolvency proceedings in one Member state will be effective in other member states as well. The insolvency proceedings is commenced in the member state of the debtor's centre of main interests. COMI as a basic building stone of the Regulation is not precisely expressed, and only a partly construction served by the Court of Justice of the European Union leaves door open for large forum shopping evidenced by abundant decision making by the Court of Justice of the European Union and national courts of member states. Forum shopping is furthered by mutual recognition of decisions in terms...

Les créances monétaires constituent une excellente source de crédit et les sûretés sur créances existent en droit français, droit anglais et droit vietnamien. Cependant, si elles sont reconnues de longue date en droit anglais, l’évolution de leur régime juridique est récente en droits français et vietnamien. Par ailleurs, si ces trois droits connaissent tous les sûretés traditionnelles sans transfert de propriété (nantissement de créances, charges sur les créances et hypothèque de créances), l’admission en droit français des seules fiducie sur créances et cession de créances professionnelles à titre de garantie par bordereau Dailly ainsi que le rejet par les juges vietnamiens des cessions innommées à titre de garantie démontrent que l’exploitation de la fonction de garantie de la propriété d’une créance n’est pas encore généralisée en France et au Vietnam à la différence de ce que l’on peut observer en droit anglais à travers la "mortgage"par voie d’"assignment" ou de novation. Enfin, l’hypothèque de créance de droit vietnamien et la "fixed charge" sur les "bookdebts" de droit anglais démontrent qu’une sûreté non basée sur le transfert de propriété peut être tout à fait efficace que ce soit dans un contexte de solvabilité ou de procédure collective du titulaire de la créance.Ces approches révèlent tout l’intérêt d’une entreprise doctorale mise en perspective des nombreux investissements économiques et montages financiers impliquant, de façon croissante, des acteurs économiques et partenaires bancaires internationaux dont les intérêts, les enjeux et les stratégies relèvent par construction, ou nécessité,des ordres juridiques précités. / Receivables constitute an excellent source of credit and security over receivables is available under French, English and Vietnamese law. However, if they have been recognised in English law for a long period of time, their development is quite recent in French and Vietnamese law. Moreover, although these three legal systems recognise all traditional security interests which are not based on the transfer of ownership over secur ed receivables (nantissement de créances in French law, floating and fixed charge over book debts in English law and hypothecation over debt claims in Vietnamese law), the fact that French law only recognises fiducia over receivables and assignment of trade receivables by way of security and Vietnamese judges have rejected the transfer ofownership by means of security, demonstrates that the use of functionality of ownership over receivables has not become widespread in France and in Vietnam. In contrast, in England, mortgages over receivables allow for the transfer of ownership as security, whether by way of an assignment or a novation. Finally, the hypothecation over debt claims of Vietnamese law and the fixed charge over book debts of English law show that security that does not entail the transfer of ownership can be perfectly efficient inside and outside insolvency proceedings.These approaches reveal the interests of a doctoral enterprise put in perspective from numerous economic investments and financing structures involving, in a rising fashion, economic stakeholders and international bank partners whose interests,stakes and strategies fall under (by construction, or necessity) the aforementioned jurisdictions

Difficulties of enterprises constitute negative phenomenon in society. They occur so often that both French and Czech legislator decided to regulate them by adoption of relevant legal provisions that offer particular ways of solution of debtor's bankruptcy. Bankruptcy law, term generally denoting this legal area, passed through "rich" historical development, what reflects in its legal, economic and social framework. Thesis is divided into four parts. The first one briefly defines difficulties of enterprises. The second one deals with different ways of solution of debtor's bankruptcy in French law, introduces principal changes that were made by the latest amendments from the area of bankruptcy law and by means of attached statistics illustrates number of bankruptcies and ways of their "treatment" in France. The third part deals with Czech insolvency law and underlines changes introduced by the new law of bankruptcy and ways of its solution that entirely replaced previous "law about bankruptcy and settlement". The last part summarizes findings of my thesis, proposes eventual ways of mutual inspiration derived from French or Czech bankruptcy law, deals with reflections de lege ferenda and outlines some terminological problems.

Filing and settling of claims in insolvency proceedings Abstract The aim of the thesis was to provide a comprehensive picture of the two mutually interconnected topics: (i) classification of claims from the perspective of insolvency proceedings and (ii) filing and settling of claims in insolvency proceedings. Bankruptcy has always accompanied human societies from its very beginnings when people began to exchange goods and provide services. The importance of regulation of bankruptcy is even up with growing trade exchange. The matter stays in focus of lawyers in Czech Republic because the related case law is constantly evolving, which provides the legislator with useful inputs for amendments of the statute law. The source of the amendments of the statute law is also a change in social conditions and recent public policy efforts to make debt releaf and exemption from remaining debts admissible for poor debtors. The 1st part of the thesis is a theoretical introduction focused on the nature of insolvency proceedings (including comparison with general individual civil proceedings), subjects in insolvency proceedings and legal principles governing this procedure. In the 2nd part, I analyzed the classification of claims as the insolvency statute law distinguish them, especially with regards to determination of the...

A l’heure de la mondialisation et de la croissance permanente des échanges entre les Etats, la question de la faillite internationale est devenue une problématique de choix, au coeur d’un système aux multiples défaillances. Le jeu du marché ne s’opère plus au regard d’un territoire et d’un Etat, mais véritablement au regard d’un espace économique qui dépasse largement les frontières de la France. Le règlement communautaire 1346/2000 relatif aux procédures d'insolvabilité, entré en vigueur le 31 mai 2002, est un premier aboutissement en la matière au niveau de l’Union européenne. Il appréhende l’insolvabilité transfrontière en réussissant à articuler procédure universelle et procédure territoriale et en liant la compétence juridictionnelle au droit substantiel applicable. La lex fori concursus , à portée universelle, est désignée par le seul critère de compétence applicable pour l'ouverture de la procédure principale d'insolvabilité : le centre des intérêts principaux du débiteur. Notion autonome et incontestablement centrale, elle ne bénéficie pas d'une définition établie. Présumée coïncider avec le siège statutaire pour le débiteur personne morale, l'acception de la notion de centre des intérêts principaux s'est faite de manière prétorienne au fil des années. A l’heure de la révision du Règlement, sa définition n'est toujours pas inscrite à l'article 2 du règlement 1346/2000. Néanmoins, cela s'avère être un avantage lorsque l'on se positionne dans une logique de dimension internationale, dans laquelle le concept de centre des intérêts principaux tend également à s'inscrire. / In the era of globalisation and permanent growth of trade between States, the matter of cross-border insolvency has become an issue of choices at the heart of a system that shows multiple failures. The market rules are no longer governed by a territory or a State, but truly by an economic area that extends far beyond the borders of France. The EC regulation 1346/2000 on insolvency proceedings that came into effect on the 31st of May, 2002 is the first achievement on this matter for the European Union. It apprehends cross-border insolvency while successfully articulating both the universal and territorial proceedings as well as binding jurisdiction with the applicable substantive law. The lex fori concursus with its universal scope is designated by the sole criterion of applicable jurisdiction for initiating the main procedure of insolvency: the debtor's centre of main interests. As an autonomous and undeniably central concept, it has no settled definition. The understanding of the centre of main interests concept which supposedly coincides with the registered office for the legal person debtor, has been put in the hands of Court over the years. Such definition is still not covered in Article 2 of the 1346/2000 regulation. However, this turns out to be an advantage on an international dimension when the concept of centre of main interests tends also to be considered on a world-wide basis.

This diploma thesis deals with the topic of international insolvency law, in particular with certain areas of European insolvency law, with an emphasis on the matters of international jurisdiction for opening of main and territorial insolvency proceedings and international jurisdiction to hear actions related to insolvency proceedings. Furthermore, this diploma thesis is aimed at evaluation of the Czech legislation regarding cross-border insolvencies. The legal framework for European insolvency law was incorporated into the Insolvency regulation in 2002. Due to disagreements between certain member states of the EU regarding some of the important institutes of cross-border insolvencies the Insolvency regulation often contains vague provisions. It, therefore, fell to the Court of Justice of the European Union to provide interpretation of such ambiguous clauses. In 2012 the European commission created a report on the application of the Insolvency regulation and simultaneously presented a long awaited proposal for modernisation of the European insolvency law in the form of the Insolvency regulation recast. The aim of the Insolvency regulation recast is to promote cooperation between member states in the matter of cross-border insolvency proceedings. Additionally, it codifies a substantial part of the...
