Where is Chapter 11 Headed: 2025 Edition

Date: Thursday, December 5
Time: 1pm CT (2pm ET, 11am PT)

Overview: Commercial chapter 11 filings have continued to surge in 2024 and are expected to continue to increase in 2025. The presenters will explain the reasons for this significant uptick in commercial chapter 11 filings, the affected industries, and the reasons for the chapter 11 filing spree that have adversely impacted trade creditor recoveries. The speakers will then address the impact of repeat chapter 11 filings, Chapter 22s, the leading bankruptcy venues for commercial chapter 11 filings, the continued trend toward speedy chapter 11 cases, and the critical role creditors’ committees play in maximizing recoveries for trade creditors and limiting exposure on preference claims. They will also review the impact of subchapter V small business bankruptcy filings on trade creditors, and a recent favorable preference decision.
