However, before we turn our attention to insolvency proceedings abroad, we will first explain in a down-to-earth manner how consumer insolvency proceedings work in Germany.

More digitalisation for more trees
Digitalisation has increased rapidly in recent years and undoubtedly has the potential to improve and simplify our lives.
