Ep.74 - The 28th Insolvency Law Regime for the European Union

November 19, 2025 • INSOL International • Episode 74

In this episode we talk to Christoph Paulus, Of Counsel, White & Case, Germany, and Francisco Garcimartin, Autonomous University of Madrid, Spain, about the recent developments in EU insolvency law and specifically the proposals for the 28th insolvency law regime. The issue of the EU falling behind the US and China in competitiveness has sparked a strong push for ambitious policy responses, including proposals for the new unified 28th regime.
