UAE set to approve new bankruptcy law by end-2012 - Justice Min | Reuters

The United Arab Emirates is close to finalising an updated federal bankruptcy law and a draft of the legislation should be ready by the end of this year, Justice Minister Hadef bin Juan al-Dhaheri said on Monday.

The draft, which has been in the works since 2009, should enable both listed and family-owned companies in the UAE to be rescued rather than having to go through lengthy bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings.

"The ministry is studying a set of laws," Dhaheri told a conference on financial restructuring and bankruptcy in Dubai.
