Além disso, o controle exercido pelo processo de insolvência prin-

cipal (e seu administrador), ou seja, aquele iniciado no foro em que o

devedor possua o seu centro de interesses principais (COMI), sobre os

procedimentos secundários, conduziria à ideia de uma autêntica unidade

patrimonial do devedor (

e coordenação do administrador “principal” é responsável por fazer com

coordinated universalism

"The mutual duty between liquidators to communicate and to

cooperate symbolizes that liquidators have to bridge the still

existing deficit of uniform law. The performance of the du-

ties to communicate and to cooperate is necessary in order

to voice, with regard to all claims, the principle of equal treat-

ment of pari passu ranked creditors. In a dozen or so separate

provisions, the Insolvency Regulation gives shape to the idea

of “unity of Estate” (there is after all one debtor), with regard

to which he who has the most dominant role (the mains liq-

uidator) in principle directs the completion of the insolvency

process, under the supervision of national court. In this pro-

cess the main liquidator has, with regard to the secondary pro-

ceedings, a set of controlling or coordinating (procedural and

substantive) powers that he can exert. It is for this reason that

for the model of international insolvency law in the system of

EU, I use the description of “coordinated universalism”."

termination of this stay (Art. 33(2)), propose a rescue plan in the context of these secondary proceedings or he may

disagree with finalizing liquidation in secondary (Art. 34(2)). He shall furthermore lodge all claims in the secondary

proceedings which have been lodged in the main proceeding (Art. 32(2)), he is duty bound to communicate infor-

mation (Art. 31(1)) and to cooperate (Art. 31(2)). Both latter obligations are duties for liquidators in secondary pro-

ceedings too”. WESSELS, Bob. "
