Corporate Insolvency Law: Perspectives and Principles

Vanessa Finch reviews U.K. corporate insolvency laws and processes, with two key questions posed throughout. Are current U.K. laws and procedures efficient, expert, accountable and fair? Are fundamentally different conceptions needed for the law to develop in a way that serves corporate and broader social ends? Topics considered in this volume include different ways of financing companies, causes of corporate failure and prospects for designing rescue-friendly processes. The book appeals to academics, students at advanced undergraduate and graduate levels and legal practitioners.

The first edition of Corporate Insolvency Law proposed a fundamentally revised concept of insolvency law, intended to serve corporate as well as broader social ends. This second edition takes on board a host of changes that have subsequently reshaped insolvency law and practice, notably the consolidation of the rescue culture in the UK, the rise of the pre-packaged administration and the substantial replacement of administrative receivership with administration. It also considers the implications of recent and dramatic changes in the provision and trading of credit, the movement of an increasing amount of 'insolvency work' to the pre-formal insolvency stage of corporate affairs and the arrival, on the insolvency scene, of a new cadre of specialists in corporate turnaround. Looking to the future, Vanessa Finch argues that changes of approach are needed if insolvency law is to develop with coherence and purpose, and she offers a framework for such an approach.
