This deals with the recognition and enforcement by the English court of:
Foreign liquidation
Foreign reorganisation proceedings
Foreign receivership
Foreign insolvency judgments, e.g. a foreign judgment ordering the defendant to return property on the basis of violation of foreign fraudulent conveyance law
All the applicable cross-border regimes have been covered in order to facilitate a comparative and evaluative analysis to the reader.
Enforcement relied and choice of law
