✦ Synopsis

The United Nations Commission on International Trade Law [hereinafter UNCI-TRAL] adopted a Model Law on Cross-Border Insolvency in 1997 [hereinafter the Model Law]. 1 Much has already been written on the Model Law, including very comprehensive guidelines that UNCITRAL itself prepared. 2 Most scholars and law commissions praise UNCITRAL for attempting to harmonize a very di⁄cult and, at times, unfair state of the law involving the reorganization of businesses with operations in two or more countries. 3 The Model Law is nothing more than a law that the United Nations and others hope countries will adopt.
