The Access Conditions of the Natural Person to the Insolvency Procedure in Romania
Since the beginning of 2020 in Romania, the COVID-19 pandemic has been exhibiting its negative effects. As expected, the hardest hit were the ordinary citizens who, overnight, awakened to reduced wages or downright joblessness. Moreover, the year 2021 has brought price increases in all areas, from basic foodstuffs to electricity, gas, fuels. The over-indebtedness of a large population of individuals has become the norm under the above conditions. The insolvency proceedings law for individuals seemed to be a solution for their over-indebtedness predicament, but we have found that this law is not performing at its true potential. In addition to a complex application form requested of the simple citizen, we contend that the access conditions to the insolvency procedure of the natural persons can be simplified and improved. Given the economic conditions in Romania, along with the reduction in the living standard, the legislator will have to give priority to the possible legislative solutions that will offer the indebted a fresh start.
