International Committee
Committees
For the first time since the start of the pandemic, ABI held its annual International Insolvency & Restructuring Symposium in person, returning to London Oct. 13-14.
The International Committee community continues to grow! We are excited to introduce and welcome the following new members who joined our committee between July and October 2022.
A new restructuring regime will be available in the Cayman Islands when the amendments to Part V of the Companies Act (2022 Revision) take effect as of August 31, 2022. Among other changes, this new regime will allow a debtor company to restructure under the supervision of a restructuring officer and provide for a worldwide automatic stay.

The International Committee community is continuing to grow! We are excited to introduce and welcome the following new members:
Whether it is the time lag depicted in Future Shock by Alvin Toffler in 1970 or the relativity of time by Yual Hararri in The History of Homo Sapiens, we have never felt the fast pace of a changing world as we are witnessing now.
The International Committee hosted an in-person happy hour social during INSOL London 2022 on June 27 at the conference hotel, the JW Marriott Grosvenor House London. Thank you to everyone who attended to mix-and-mingle with fellow ABI members; we had a blast!
We hope this newsletter finds you enjoying the lazy days of summer and maybe even getting to do some international traveling. Keep reading to hear all the amazing things the International Committee has been up to.
We are pleased to announce that, with the help of ABI’s Karim Guirguis and his team, the Global Insolvency website (globalinsolvency.com) has had numerous updates that will enhance its visibility, add significantly more valuable content, and draw more viewers to the site.
