What Is the Small Business Reorganization Act?

In recent years, significant strides have been made to improve bankruptcy procedures for small businesses. One of these key advancements was implementing the Small Business Reorganization Act (SBRA) in 2019. Congress introduced legislation to simplify existing bankruptcy procedures and make it easier for small businesses to take advantage of bankruptcy protections. 

Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code is often considered complex and cumbersome. As a solution to this complexity, the SBRA was incorporated into the U.S. bankruptcy code in February 2020. This law was designed to assist small business owners in restructuring their debts, minimizing liquidations, and retaining equity. The SBRA has effectively simplified the Chapter 11 bankruptcy process, making it more affordable, quicker, and less intricate for small businesses.

To better understand the impact of the SBRA, let's delve into its key advantages:

• It allows for a more streamlined reorganization process, enabling businesses to propose their reorganization plan without needing approval from a creditors' committee. The plan must be filed within 90 days of filing for Chapter 11.
• The law extends the deadline for paying administrative expense claims, providing businesses additional time to manage their financial responsibilities.
• Businesses can now modify residential mortgages if the loan was primarily used for business operations, offering greater flexibility in financial management.
• The SBRA eliminates the necessity for business equity holders to provide new value to retain their interest without settling all debts with creditors.
• The court may appoint a case trustee to supervise the reorganization process, ensuring that proceedings are both fair and efficient.

The Small Business Reorganization Act is a significant development in the U.S. bankruptcy code. Simplifying and streamlining the process has made Chapter 11 a more accessible and manageable option for small businesses looking to restructure their debts and regain financial stability.
