Cultural Matters in Fashioning a Cross-Border Workout

Inspired legal or financial strategies are at the heart of any successful workout, but it also takes considerable finesse to balance the interests of competing stakeholders in order to craft a collective solution for the continuity of a troubled entity. It is difficult enough to orchestrate a solution in the case of relatively simple, single entity insolvencies. It is exponentially more complicated to deal with cross-border workouts and multinational enterprise groups, when dynamics are complicated by competing legal jurisdictions and an array of cultural and other nuances. This paper is a collaboration by Allan Nackan, Paul Keenan Jr., Jean Baron and Rodrigo Callejas – Fellows of INSOL International and examines the impact of cultural factors on cross-border insolvency workouts.
