Rebecca Hume Moderates Panel on Insolvency Tools for Arbitration Cases in Russia and CIS


July 8, 2020

How can insolvency tools inform a broader strategy in arbitration cases and asset recovery in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) jurisdictions? Kobre & Kim’s Rebecca Hume will moderate a virtual panel on insolvency tools in the Asset Recovery conference on July 9, 2020, 4:55 pm EEST / 2:55 pm BST / 9:55 am EDT.

Arbitration is commonly used to litigate disputes in Russia and the CIS. In the panel, “The Very End of the Line,” Hume will moderate a discussion with practitioners from Russia, Belarus and Ukraine. Drawing from their own practices, including Hume’s experience in offshore jurisdictions, they will explore the use of insolvency tools, the power of office holders, and where and how they become relevant in a dispute that may result in insolvency.
