About this title

Review:

This is one of the most impressive and authoritative books in this area of law addressing, providing a thorough legal and practical analysis of international corporate, banking and sovereign debt restructuring from both the creditors' and debtors' perspective. (Gabriel Gómez Giglio, Insol World, First Quarter 2012)

All in all, iDebt Restructuringr is an excellent practical guide built on a well-laid out conceptual foundation, guiding the practitioner not only on what needs to be done, but also why. (David Stokes, Journal of International Banking Law and Regulation)

No less an eminent authority as Philip Wood QC provides the foreword to this work. He rightly says that this work is a major contribution to the practice and the law in a fundamentally important topic. It is, as he rightly says, the law in action, and there can perhabps be no greater tribute to this work than saying that it is not only that but also a very learned and insightful work of scholarship. (David Marks QC, International Company and Commercial Law Review)
