Description

As a side-effect of the measures taken by European states to support their economy, the number of bankruptcies in 2020 generally dropped in comparison to earlier years. As such measures come to an end, it is expected that reality will kick in again. Companies that do not have a viable business model and the necessary capital will struggle and several will fall. This session will brush up your knowledge on the sensitivities of distressed deals, loan to own transactions, creditors’ rights and Paulian actions.
