Given the shifting landscape of insolvency law and procedures in Slovakia, this article aims to summarise key aspects of bankruptcy, insolvency, and rehabilitation proceedings under Slovakian law. Remaining informed about these processes is crucial for corporations and law firms operating in Slovakia, or those which may potentially face such circumstances.
The ILN Restructuring & Insolvency Collaborative Paper, to which our guide refers, provides a wider perspective on global insolvency laws. This article, however, focuses primarily on regulations within the Slovak Republic, relating to business corporations that have been categorised as debtors.
A fundamental aspect discussed pertains to the preventive restructuring proceedings which were introduced into Slovak commercial law in 2022. An understanding of these newly introduced proceedings is of essence to corporations, specifically those operating within the commercial space, seeking to pre-emptively navigate situations of insolvency.
The courts of the Slovak Republic have begun to implement these provisions, a phenomenon for which staying cognizant will prove significant to legal professionals in the corporate world.
