Q2 | 2025
To our clients and friends
Welcome to the second quarter edition of our International Restructuring Newswire, where our global team of lawyers share valuable insights into the forces shaping the restructuring landscape.
As we navigate an era marked by tariff and trade disputes, inflationary pressure, broader geopolitical tensions, global markets and business operations are facing into significant and in some instances, unprecedented challenges. This dynamic reinforces the importance of proactive strategies, cross-border collaboration, and innovative problem-solving to address the complex needs of our clients. Now is a time to be adaptable and informed, and our global team of restructuring lawyers stand ready to provide critical guidance and advice during these turbulent times.
The global economic uncertainty only makes it more essential to stay on top of restructuring developments throughout the world. In this issue we look at insolvency reforms in Singapore; US Bankruptcy Courts’ recent decisions on third-party releases; an annual review of Chapter 15 decisions; the Dutch Supreme Court judgment on the Royal IHC restructuring; and the English High Court decision on implying a duty of good faith when exercising contractual discretions.
- Opt-in or opt-out? The ongoing debate over consensual third-party releases in Chapter 11 cases
- The Dutch Supreme Court judgment on the WHOA restructuring of Royal IHC
- Enhancements proposed to Singapore’s Corporate Restructuring and Insolvency Regime
- Year in review: Significant US Chapter 11 decisions in 2024
- An implied duty of good faith under English law: when does it apply to lenders, and what does it require of them?
