Australia’s restructuring landscape has experienced significant developments in recent years. This has included several major legislative reforms, a number of high-profile restructurings (many involving schemes of arrangement) and other ground-breaking case law developments. This chapter summarises these recent developments and provides some insights as to possible trends in Australian restructuring in the near future.

Indonesian chapter

Whilst the Indonesian Bankruptcy Code has been a useful regime for foreign lenders to enforce their security against Indonesian debtors, numerous questions have been raised in relation to the Indonesian bankruptcy and debt moratorium process. Common criticisms of application of the Code include: lack of transparency, inconsistent application and varying interpretations of the Code itself.
