The procedure, conducted before the competent court of the district encompassing Torino, requires the appointment of an OCC (Organismo di Composizione della Crisi) and the preparation of a feasibility report.

The procedure entails the judicial sale of non-exempt assets under the supervision of the court of Torino, with the subsequent release of the debtor from remaining obligations upon satisfaction of the legal conditions. The firm assists the client through the eligibility assessment, documentation, and the discharge application, which — if granted by the court — may represent a definitive resolution of the debt situation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FROM INTERNATIONAL CLIENTS IN TORINO

• Can an Italian citizen residing abroad access debt restructuring procedures in Torino?
  • An Italian citizen with debts connected to Torino or the province of Torino — such as mortgage arrears, unpaid taxes, or business debts — may access Italian over-indebtedness procedures provided the centre of their economic interests or the debts' connection to the Italian jurisdiction can be demonstrated. The firm evaluates eligibility on a case-by-case basis.
  • Schedule a preliminary consultation
• Does Italian debt restructuring affect debts owed in other countries?
  • Italian over-indebtedness procedures primarily affect debts governed by Italian law. However, under the EU Insolvency Regulation, the effects of proceedings opened in Italy extend to other EU member states. For debts in non-EU jurisdictions, recognition of the Italian procedure depends on bilateral treaties and local law.

The firm recommends the procedure most suitable to the client's asset position and debt profile.
