University of Nicosia: An in-depth European Analysis of the European Account Preservation Order

October 8, 2024

A comprehensive guide titled European Account Preservation Order – A Multi-jurisdictional Guide with Commentary has been released by Bruylant/Larcier. Edited by Dr Nicolas Kyriakides (Co-Director of the Procedural Law Unit, University of Nicosia), Heikki A. Huhtamäki (Lawyer, academic), and Nicholas Mouttotos (University of Bremen), this publication provides a detailed analysis of Regulation No 655/2014.

The book explores the European Account Preservation Order (EAPO) and its implementation in 26 EU Member States, excluding Denmark. With contributions from a wide range of European experts, this guide is an invaluable resource for legal professionals, EU policymakers, and scholars in the field of international civil procedure, highlighting the varying interpretations of the Regulation and the potential for the Court of Justice of the European Union to harmonise these differences.

Structured in three parts, the book begins with an overview of the EAPO’s effectiveness in facilitating cross-border debt recovery. The second part provides detailed analyses of the application and enforcement of the EAPO in each Member State, including relevant case law and alternative methods for obtaining bank account information. The final section looks forward, examining the EAPO’s interaction with common law practices and summarising its application across different jurisdictions. The book also features prefaces by Gilles Cuniberti and Dr Nicolas Kyriakides.

This publication is a critical tool for anyone involved in cross-border debt recovery and EU regulatory frameworks, offering essential insights and practical guidance.
