This publication is intended to provide a general guide to the law and regulation in
the individual jurisdictions described. The information and opinions which it contains
are not intended to be a comprehensive study or to provide legal advice, and should not be treated as a substitute for legal advice concerning particular situations.

Legal advice should always be sought before taking any action based on the information provided. The publishers and co-publishers bear no responsibility for any errors or omissions contained herein.

Insolvency and restructuring procedures, and the terms used when referring to the procedures, office holders and participants in those procedures, vary from one jurisdiction to another. Translation of these terms into English creates additional issues in deciding which terms to use to describe the procedures and the parties involved.

Readers should note that the terms appearing in the text of each chapter such as ‘trustee’ and ‘bankruptcy manager’, which may be equivalent to one another, are those of the authors of each chapter and no attempt has been made to standardise such terms across the chapters.

The contact details of all these firms are quickly available via the 'Contributors' section of the site.
