Slovenia has amended the Financial Operations, Insolvency Proceedings and Compulsory Dissolution Act (ZFPPIPP or the Insolvency Act) again, following amendments in 2013, amending preventive restructuring, simplified compulsory settlement and personal bankruptcy proceedings. Amendments to the Insolvency Act, which were adopted by the National Assembly on 31 March 2016, will come into force on 26 April 2016.

The main modifications introduced by the amendments are as follows:

  • small companies may now rely on proceedings on preventive restructuring, in addition to medium-sized and large companies as was previously permitted;
  • a decision approving financial restructuring must now be published during preventive proceedings, eliminating delays in delivering a decision to individual creditors and shortening the period between conclusion of the agreement and its entry into force;
