Effective Enforcement of Creditors Rights

The problem of enforcing a money judgment exists in every legal system in the world, but the methods and orientation vary significantly. Effective enforcement proceedings are crucial to ensure full access to justice for creditors. Complete and full knowledge of the debtors' assets is crucial to choose the appropriate enforcement measure. But each legal system must balance the creditors' rights to an efficient enforcement with the debtors' rights. The wide differences between enforcement proceedings mirror the way each society tries to find a balance between confronting rights and interests.

This book explores and compares how different legal systems approach these issues with a focus on the discovery of debtors' assets, which is a common problem for enforcement and execution proceedings in almost every jurisdiction. This is the first book to compare enforcement proceedings around the world and presents a variety of information and country reports from leading experts from four continents. It represents the joint work of academic and legal authorities from Germany, Japan, Korea, France, the UK, Switzerland, Austria, Spain, Poland, Russia, Greece, North America, Taiwan, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and the EU.

Provides the most comprehensive international comparison of the discovery of debtors' assets Furnishes unique insights in current developments in enforcement proceedings on four continents Is authored by leading experts from 17 countries and areas
