This second edition provides updated and practical analysis of restructuring under English and New York Law.
Since the publication of the previous edition, certain areas of restructuring law have received particular attention. Waivers, amendments, and standstills, and in particular "snooze and lose" and "yank the bank" provisions have continued to develop in the last five years as well as other refinements from the US which are being increasingly used in Europe. The mechanisms for giving effect to debt compromise arrangements, either through Schemes of Arrangement or Chapter 11 pre-packs, have also developed significantly on recent years. There has been a great deal of debate surrounding restructuring and insolvency law in Europe following the recast EC Regulation on Insolvency Proceedings and further developments in various European jurisdictions. The second edition has been thoroughly updated to cover these, and all other major developments in the field to provide a complete and up-to-date guide to restructuring on both sides of the Atlantic.
This work provides detailed analysis of areas associated with company restructures including tax and shareholder claims, employee and trade union matters, and pension scheme issues. Additionally the new edition features new or developed chapters on key areas of practical development such as private equity's role in restructuring and specific issues relating to financial institutions, energy, property, airlines and shipping. With coverage of techniques available to both stressed and distressed companies, as well as looking at specialist markets and key stakeholders, The Law and Practice of Restructuring in the UK and US is an invaluable guide for banking, finance, and insolvency practitioners and their clients, and both financial institutions and companies looking to restructure debt, and global accountancy firms and law and business schools worldwide.

...this is a masterful work that conveys what it promises to do and, for that reason, should be of use to practitioners and stakeholders in the restructuring environment. * Paul J. Omar (Journal of International Banking Law and Regulation, 2017) * It contains an outstanding selection of cases, primarily from courts based in the US, the UK, Australia and Europe. This case study approach makes the book not only more actual and effortless to read, but also extremely valuable for the prospective audience, who are given direct guidelines on how to address the problems they face in their daily practice. It represents a welcome support for all those who practise and deal with insolvency and restructuring matters under the UK and/or the US law. * Eugenio Vaccari (International Company and Commercial Law Review, 2017) * An authoritative and highly regarded text which contains a wealth of legal expertise presented by, in addition to the authors, thirty-five expert contributors, all of whom offer the benefits of their extensive experience in this field. Highly readable, easily navigable and copiously footnoted, this handy and helpful volume belongs in the library of every transatlantic practitioner. * Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor, The Barrister *
