The complexity of determining which law applies to supply contracts has not, to our knowledge, been sufficiently addressed by Portuguese academic opinion or case law. But this is now an extremely important issue in practice, as it is increasingly more common for shareholders of Portuguese companies to be foreign individuals or legal persons, which means that their interactions are no longer just subject to Portuguese law and take on an international dimension.

Liquidation plays a key role within insolvency proceedings, as it consists in the sale of the assets of the insolvent estate. In this article, we aim to provide an overview of the main issues and difficulties that, in practice, arise at the time of liquidation.
