Ordinance on Public Announcements in Insolvency Proceedings on the Internet (InsoBekV)
https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/insobekv/

The insolvency court makes certain steps of the insolvency proceedings public. Courts publish announcements regarding insolvency proceedings at www.insolvenzbekanntmachungen.de. The announcements are accessible to everyone there for a limited period of time.

In insolvency proceedings, the insolvency court is obligated to publicly disclose certain information. This includes, in particular, the order opening the proceedings, which precisely names the person or company against whose assets the proceedings have been opened. In some cases, additional publications may be made if required by the laws of the respective federal state.

These announcements are made online on a central, nationwide platform. As an affected person, such as a creditor, you can find out about the progress of the insolvency proceedings there. This gives you the opportunity to check whether and how you are affected and, if necessary, assert your claims in a timely manner.

Public announcement ensures transparency and thus prevents discrimination in the process.

The portal contains public announcements on insolvency proceedings concerning, for example,

• the ordering and lifting of protective measures by the court,
• the dismissal of an insolvency application due to lack of assets,
• the decision to open insolvency proceedings,
• the decision on the annulment or discontinuation of insolvency proceedings,
• Resolutions on the determination of the remuneration of the insolvency administrator, the trustee and the members of the creditors' committee,
