MESSAGE FROM THE ORGANISING CHAIR
Dato’ Ishak bin Bakri
Director General of Insolvency
Malaysian Department of Insolvency (MdI)
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Forum on Asian Insolvency Reform (FAIR) 2026 at W Hotel Kuala Lumpur on 4 – 5 November 2026.
Insolvency systems across Asia are facing new pressures, from cross-border cases to changing economic conditions. Under the theme “Future-Proofing Asian Insolvency Systems”, FAIR 2026 brings together policymakers, judges, regulators and practitioners to share reform experiences and learn from one another.
Over two days, 33 speakers will discuss personal insolvency, the UNCITRAL Model Law on Cross‑Border Insolvency, judicial cooperation, alternative dispute resolution, and directors’ duties. Malaysia hosts this forum building on a century of insolvency administration, as we continue to modernise our services.
