Preventive Restructuring in Europe

The PRD at five: from Policy to Practice

Five years after its adoption, most EU Member States have implemented the PRD 2019, while also inspiring reforms in several other European countries.

Drawing on restructuring experiences gained in the last years, this conference reviews key aspects of the new restructuring frameworks. In addition, it explores the resilience of the restructuring frameworks in times of economic and geopolitical uncertainties.
