Diversity of Enforcement Titles in Cross-border Debt Collection in the EU

Abstract

Of the many obstacles to cross-border debt recovery, perhaps the most pressing is the lack of trust between national authorities in different EU Member States. National authorities publicly question and mistrust the enforcement of other Member States. The problem is exacerbated by the variety of pressure actions used by Member States, in particular their structure and impact. The aim of the project is to analyse these differences and address the problems identified, in particular with a view to strengthening mutual trust.
