9.1 BANKRUPTCY SUPERVISION<br />
KFM is also the supervisory authority in bankruptcy. Such supervision is<br />
exercised over receivers in bankruptcy as appointed by the courts.<br />
Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Act, the purpose of supervision is to ensure<br />
that receivership is conducted in accordance with the law, appropriately<br />
and so as to obtain the best possible financial outcome for creditors.<br />
In order to meet the Government’s requirements for bankruptcy supervision,<br />
SKV issued recommendations in 1999. Among them are that the<br />
supervisory authority in bankruptcy be questioned before a receiver is<br />
appointed. In addition, the receiver is to provide timely information on<br />
each bankruptcy, while supervision is to be active, systematic and focused<br />
on the essentials.<br />
The task of the supervisory authority includes making sure that receivers<br />
<strong>report</strong> both suspected <strong>crime</strong> and situations in which there is cause to issue<br />
trading prohibitions, as well as helping to improve the quality of such<br />
<strong>report</strong>s.<br />
Bankruptcies steadily decreased in number during the late 1990s. A<br />
slight increase in the first years of this decade seems to have levelled off<br />
in 2003.<br />
