In this episode of the International Insolvency Institute’s Global Perspectives podcast, we went back to the

basics on cross-border restructuring and insolvency frameworks in mainland China. Practitioners Wang Lingqi

(Fangda Partners), Veronica Chan (Tanner de Witt), and Assistant Professor Guo Shuai (China University of

Political Science and Law) give us a quick lesson on the types of insolvency proceedings that apply to

companies in China, before going into what the considerations of the Chinese courts usually are in granting

recognition of foreign proceedings, the cases that have gone through the Chinese Mainland – Hong Kong

cooperation mechanism for cross-border insolvency. We look at what opportunities there may be for work

coming out of China, and our speakers share a tip or two on working on Chinese cross-border insolvencies.
