Cross-border insolvency protocols
Cross-border insolvency protocols refer to the legal frameworks that manage insolvency cases involving parties in different countries. When a person or business cannot pay debts and has assets in multiple jurisdictions, these protocols help coordinate the bankruptcy process across borders. They ensure fair treatment of creditors, protect the interests of debtors, and provide clarity on how assets will be handled. International agreements, like the UNCITRAL Model Law, facilitate cooperation between countries to resolve complex insolvency cases efficiently and effectively.
