Abstract
With the growing international integration of corporate activities into the European Single Market, there is also a growing number of insolvencies with cross-border implications. The European Insolvency Regulation (EIR) creates a uniform international insolvency law for this purpose. This work examines how registered assets, i.e. land, ships and aircraft, which belong to a debtor are treated in cross-border insolvency proceedings under the EIR. Essentially, the work answers the question of how insolvency proceedings opened in one EU Member State affect the debtor’s assets that are registered in another Member State and how the insolvency administrator or a secured creditor can realise them. The recent insolvencies of the airlines Air Berlin and Niki in 2017 as well as of numerous shipping funds show the relevance and topicality of this matter.
