Excerpt
The global financial crisis has compelled emerging and developing economies around the world to recognise that an efficient and effective insolvency system is a critical part of a nation’s financial architecture. It is absolutely vital to stability in commercial relationships and financial systems, and fundamental to economic growth, wealth creation and encouraging both enterprise and investment....
The insolvency profession plays an important role in the insolvency system. It is now well established that where a jurisdiction has a well-developed cadre of insolvency professionals, who ascribe to the highest standards together with the appropriate oversight, the insolvency system functions effectively and efficiently. Competent and recognised insolvency professions can overcome gaps in the legislative framework and make the system work for the benefit of all. Their stature, trust and skill enable them to bridge the differences that the various stakeholders will have and help ensure that the business assets are deployed to maximise value. Thus the insolvency system should provide a suitable framework for insolvency professionals. It is important however, that the role of the insolvency professional fits with societal expectations.
