Фрагмент работы

The poor economic situation during the last few years (2008-2010) significantly affected development of the economy of the United Kingdom forcing more firms to default on their debt and leave the market (The Insolvency Service, 2011). The growth in the number of insolvent companies made the efficiency of the UK insolvency system an important object of debates.
However, since the efficiency of the insolvency law is hard measure, there haven‟t been many attempts from the scholars‟ side to evaluate it. Actually, the last thorough analysis of the efficiency of insolvency code in UK was made in 1996 by Julian Franks et al. Because a long time has passed without any updated review the authors chose to fill this blank area. In particular, the authors decided to answer such research question - How efficient is the UK Insolvency code?
As efficiency itself is not definable straightforwardly, authors made a qualitative research looking for benchmarks for evaluation of the efficiency of the law. At first, authors‟ covered the materials explaining the insolvency law in the UK, then turned to studies of scholars expressing their analysis about the efficiency of the law and its enforcement. In order to grasp implications of the latest changes in the law, authors acquainted themselves with opinions of practitioners expressed in magazines specializing in insolvency issues. Finally, in order to get practical valuation of the system, authors distributed a qualitative survey among insolvency practitioners in the UK. More than 350 e-mails were sent to IPs (Insolvency practitioners) asking 6 open-ended questions (Appendix 1). Even though the response rate was low, the authors managed to receive 15 essay-type answers.
In answering the main research question authors analysed the Insolvency code in UK based on three denoted benchmarks of efficient system. In the authors opinion, efficient Insolvency law must: (i) eliminate inefficient companies in the ex-ante and ex-post phases, (ii) allow flexible problem solving to reach time and cost efficiency and (iii) limit value destroying incentives in the ex-ante, interim and ex-post phases.…
