Concordat or Financial Restructuring? Choosing a Path in Türkiye
Turkish concordat (konkordato) versus out-of-court restructuring: duration, cost, confidentiality, effect on enforcement and which suits which company.
We bring financial and legal perspectives together at every stage of the concordat process.
Can’t pay your debts on time, but believe the business can survive?
That is exactly what concordat (konkordato) under Turkish law is for. But an unprepared application can push a company into a harder position instead of protecting it.
With Concordat Advisory, we first assess whether concordat is the right path for you. If it is, we manage the process from the preliminary project to the definitive moratorium, financially and legally.
The questions we hear most often in this area, explained briefly.
The application includes a preliminary concordat project, documents showing the financial position, a list of creditors and other documents listed in the Enforcement and Bankruptcy Law, plus a report from an independent audit firm. Complete and consistent documents are critical for the moratorium decision.
Once a temporary moratorium is granted, as a rule no new enforcement proceedings can be started against the debtor and pending ones are suspended. There are exceptions, such as secured claims, so each claim should be reviewed.
The temporary moratorium is three months and can be extended. The definitive moratorium is one year and can be extended by up to six months. Total duration depends on the company and the court.
