世界银行新营商环境指标与我国破产法修改

The World Bank's B-READY Project and the Reform of Chinese Enterprise BankruptcyLaw

世界银行新营商环境指标,在设计理念、指标内容以及评估方法上,较之以往均存在显著的革新。商事破产作为新营商环境指标的十大核心指标之一,被认为在提升全球各经济体营商环境方面,有着不可忽视的关键作用。准确把握新营商环境指标的改革初衷、商事破产指标中各指标细项之具体内涵,及指标所对应的最佳实践做法与其理论基础,是该项目未来在本土得以有效实施的关键。从规则的体系性完善角度出发,在此次《企业破产法》修改中有必要对标域外破产制度改革的最新趋势及最佳实践做法,重点围绕破产临界期董事义务、跨境破产、小微企业破产重整以及重整新融资制度等方面,以系统性方式修改和完善相应的规则,从而有效助推我国市场化、法治化和国际化营商环境的建设。

The introduction of the World Bank's new business environment indicators marks significant innovations in terms of design philosophy,indicator content,and assessment methods compared to previous versions.Among the ten core indicators of this new business environment framework,business insolvency is considered to play a crucial role in enhancing the business environment of economies globally.Accurately understanding the original intent behind the reform of the new indicators,as well as the specific details within the business insolvency indicator and the theoretical foundations underlying the best practices associated with it,is key to ensuring the effective implementation of this project domestically.From the perspective of systematically improving the legal framework,it is necessary,in the upcoming amendments to the Enterprise Bankruptcy Law,to align with the latest trends and best practices in bankruptcy law reforms from other jurisdictions.The focus should be on systematically revising and improving the relevant rules in areas such as the duties of directors in the vicinity of bankruptcy,cross-border insolvency,the reorganization of small and micro enterprises,and new financing mechanisms for restructuring.This approach will effectively promote the development of a market-oriented,rule-of-law-based,and internationalized business environment in China.
