1. INSOL Europe Harmonisation of Insolvency Law at EU level 2010 http://www.insol-europe.org/eu-research/ European Company Law
2. The Report provides the following conclusion Topics that are apt for such harmonisation and for which harmonisation is also important are the following i) the rules on the opening of insolvency proceedings including the eligibility of the debtor; ii) the rules on the filing and verification of claims; iii) the rules on the responsibility for the proposal, verification, adoption, modification and contents of reorganization plans; iv) the rules on the voidness, voidability and unenforceability of detrimental acts; v) the rules on the termination of contracts and rules on the mandatory performance under contracts; and vi) the rules on the liabilities of directors, shadow directors, shareholders, lenders and other parties involved with the debtor. vi) Furthermore, rules on the insolvency of groups of companies should be developed. vii) Finally, it is desirable that a central database containing relevant court orders and judgments is made available

It is often referred to as the surplus of a going-concern value over a liquidation value
