  • The Anti-Deprivation Rule and the Pari Passu Rule in Insolvency
    The Anti-deprivation Rule and the Pari Passu Rule in Insolvency Peter Niven* In 2011 the UK Supreme Court delivered a judgment in Belmont Park Investments Pty v BNY Corporate Trustee Services Ltd that addressed the common law anti-deprivation rule. The anti-deprivation rule is a rule that is aimed at attempts to withdraw an asset on bankruptcy, with the effect that the bankrupt’s estate is reduced in value to the detriment of creditors. The underlying public policy is that parties should not be able to contract to defeat the insolvency laws. The Supreme Court in Belmont recognised, for the first time, that there are two distinct rules arising from that public policy, the anti-deprivation rule and the pari passu rule. The latter rule provides that parties cannot contract out of the statutory provisions for pari passu distribu- tion in bankruptcy. The Supreme Court’s judgment has been applied in a number of cases in the UK.This article examines Belmont and its application in two subsequent cases. 0There is a general principle of public policy that parties cannot contract out of the legislation governing insolvency. From this general principle two sub-rules have emerged: the anti-deprivation rule and the rule that it is contrary to public policy to contract out of pari passu distribution (the pari passu rule). The anti-deprivation rule is a rule of the common law that is aimed at attempts to withdraw an asset on bankruptcy, with the effect that the bankrupt’s estate is reduced in value to the detriment of creditors.
