Introduction
Real estate has become one of the worst-affected sectors for insolvency and one where the consequences are only too visible on our high streets. The gloomy forecast for the domestic economy and a difficult Christmas predicted by the retail sector has further highlighted the sector’s woes.
Despite sophisticated solutions having been sought, with the help of lenders who are keen to keep their investments afloat, distressed property companies are struggling to survive at time where there is no sign of widespread value growth. Fundamental issues within the property sector will take longer to become visible with inappropriate business models taking as long as a decade to resolve.
At this timely and highly focussed conference, leading experts in property and insolvency law will guide delegates through often complex issues and consider how legal principles can best be applied in practice.
