ABS TR ACT
In Ecuador has been enacted the Humanitar ian Support Law to face the crisis generated
by the covid-19 pandemic. This law establishes an exceptional preventive agreement
with procedures to combat the crisis that the commercial sector is going through.
However, a series of questions arise that motivated the preparation of this contribu-
tion. Among these questions, are these procedures -really- implemented as the right
solutions to business crises? Furthe rmore, can effective alternatives be considered for
the permanence of the companies in the market? Therefore, based on multidisciplinary
methodological considerations, finding a valid and timely response has made it es-
sential to carry out a te chnical-normative analysis of the exceptional pre-bankruptcy
and bankruptcy scenarios that this law establishes as we propose here.
Keywor ds: company, economic recession, profitability, debt, bilateral agreement.
