The second edition will be out in the middle of 2023 (Yes, it has been 10 years since the first, which was made more complex by my move to HK). It has been wonderful to collaborate with @VUmakanth. Several updates are included, together with a ch. on SPAC.
Flew from Bangalore to HK last night with layover in Mumbai. 2.5 hr-layover is not long enough to pick up boarding pass (required to do HKID & visa check at desk), clear security and immigration. Min 3.5 hrs req'd. Had to cut queue and barely made it to gate.

Court-Supervised Restructuring of Large Distressed Companies in Asia - Law and Policy https://t.co/2pwHbazzD7 My book, covering insolvency and restructuring laws in four Asian jurisdictions, Mainland China, India, Hong Kong and Singapore, is now available for pre-order!
Finally, the monograph is in print! This has been an amazing project. I am greatly indebted to colleagues, friends, insolvency practitioners and lawyers, judges and market professionals who have generously given up their time in discussing with me on the research.
Looking forward to the virtual book launch on 5 August 2022 when I will be discussing court-supervised restructurings of large companies in Mainland China, India, Hong Kong and Singapore, and to commentaries by Jingchen Zhao and Andrew Godwin: https://t.co/vqpMCqrVEF
