Should the UK and the Eurozone adopt America’s Chapter 11 format for bankruptcy?
| |
| In America, when a company gets into difficulty it can file for what is called Chapter 11 which is named after the U.S. bankruptcy code 11. Chapter 11 is a form of bankruptcy that involves a reorganisation of a company's business affairs and assets and it generally filed by corporations that require time to restructure their debts.
In essence, Chapter 11 gives the company a fresh start, subject to the company's fulfillment of the obligations under its plan of reorganisation. Whereas in the UK, for example, a company has to either go into receivership or liquidation.
Where a company goes into liquidation the business ceases and the company's directors appoint a liquidator to sell the assets of the company in order to pay off as many of it's creditors as is possible. |

They would say: Which comes first, your people, your customers, or your shareholders? And I would say, it's not a conundrum. Your people come first, and if you treat them right, they'll treat the customers right, and the customers will come back, and that'll make the shareholders happy.” |
