UAE bankruptcy law draft may be delayed until end-2013 -lawyer | Reuters

A draft of changes to United Arab Emirates bankruptcy law aimed at simplifying the process and letting failing companies restructure is taking longer than expected and may not be ready until the end of 2013.

The draft, which has been in the works since 2009, should enable both listed and family-owned companies that get into trouble to restructure and be rescued rather than being forced to go through lengthy bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings.

The OPEC member's government hopes the new rules will reassure foreign investors and help bring in more cash from overseas.
