Clarifying the concepts of bankruptcy, non-creditworthiness and insolvency of legal entities in the context of sanctions and import substitution by D. V. Manushin

“…Objective: to propose a new vision of the terms “bankrupt”, “bankruptcy”, “bankruptcy of legal entities”, “non-creditworthiness” and “insolvency”, corresponding to the current situation of counteracting sanctions and developing import substitution in the Russian economy.Methods: abstract-logical, comparative law studies, interpretation of law, theoretical-legal modeling.Results: the concepts of “bankrupt”, “bankruptcy” and “insolvency” were summarized and critically evaluated. The author compared stages of bankruptcy and exit from insolvency of legal entities in Russia with the essence of the “insolvency” and “bankruptcy” concepts. …”
