On 17 January 2017, Regulation No 655/2014, establishing a European Account Preservation Order (‘EAPO Regulation’), entered into force. As its name suggests, this instrument introduced the first cross-border civil interim measure, which allows the provisional attachment of bank accounts. This course provides a comprehensive analysis of the EAPO Regulation from both a theoretical and practical perspective. The course will identify first-hand difficulties and challenges that courts and practitioners might encounter while using the EAPO Regulation.
The course will scrutinise each of the phases of the procedure, from the EAPO application to the stage when debtors can challenge the EAPO. Besides explaining the EAPO Regulation, the seminar will also have two case studies tackling different aspects of this procedure that participants will have to solve.
Overall, this course will give participants a practical understanding of the EAPO procedure and how to approach some of its essential aspects in an effective manner.
