Welcome to our latest issue of the International Restructuring Newswire.
"Change is inevitable in music—things change."
– John Coltrane
What legendary jazz musician John Coltrane said about music holds equally true in the restructuring world. Changes in restructuring laws and strategies are inevitable. Practitioners need to be ever vigilant of changes that will have an enormous impact on how to effectively restructure distressed companies.
In this issue, we help to keep you abreast of new developments in a variety of jurisdictions, places where Norton Rose Fulbright advises its clients on the leading cross-border restructurings. In the Netherlands, we look at new cases with far-reaching consequences using the Dutch Scheme (WHOA). Our article on the UK discusses new cross-border jurisdictional techniques based on newly incorporated English companies. How Singapore courts deal with insolvency and cryptocurrencies and evolving techniques in the US for liability management are also covered in this issue. Finally, we look at how Australia's Parliament is embracing change in its far-reaching review of Australia's insolvency laws.
Good reading! And we hope to see many of you at the upcoming INSOL International conference in Tokyo in September.

The private credit market and direct lending have grown and diversified immensely in the past decade, offering alternative sources and terms of debt compared to those historically provided by the syndicated leveraged loan and public issuance markets. Consequently, they are fast becoming pivotal components in the capital ecosystem, so much so that the Bank of England consider that the private credit market is currently responsible for approximately $1.8 trillion of debt issuance, which is four times its size in 2015. This growth has been particularly pronounced in Europe and the US but there has also been significant activity in Asia.

The EU’s Artificial Intelligence Regulation, commonly referred to as the AI Act, is expected to come into force during the summer of 2024 (the AI Act). The AI Act will be the first comprehensive legal framework for the use and development of artificial intelligence (AI), and is intended to ensure that AI systems developed and used in the EU are safe, transparent, traceable, non-discriminatory and environmentally friendly.
