Welcome back to a new season of INSOL Talks.

In this episode, our experts, Prof. Stephan Madaus (Martin Luther University Halle Wittenburg), Dr. Riz Mokal (South Square), and Prof. Dominik Skauradszun (Fulda University of Applied Sciences) discuss a recent judgment by the first instance court of Frankfurt am Main, which declined to recognise the effects of an English restructuring plan. The debate raises questions of predictability, legal certainty and judicial cooperation while potentially stirring cross-border restructuring in a new direction.
