II GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE RESTRUCTURING AND INSOLVENCY LEGAL FRAMEWORK

i Restructuring process

If a company is unable to pay its creditors at maturity, the company may file a petition for restructuring proceedings with the Danish bankruptcy court for the purpose of completing a compulsory composition or a (partial) business transfer.

The bankruptcy court appoints a restructuring administrator as well as a restructuring accountant. The administrator is an attorney, whose duties as administrator are to take care of and protect the creditors’ interests in the company. The reorganiser must be independent and meet the Bankruptcy Act’s requirements with respect to impartiality, and accordingly the administrator may, for example, not have been the company’s attorney. The accountant may not have been the company’s auditor for a period of two years prior to the restructuring proceedings.

25 abr. 2017 - The restructuring procedure is based on a decision by the bankruptcy court. The purpose of the procedure is to examine the possibility of a compulsory composition and / or business transfer. The restructuring procedure can be commenced with respect to both natural and legal persons. It can be based on a petition by the debtor or the creditor. However, a restructuring procedure which is based on a creditor´s petition (and not endorsed by the debtor) may only be commenced with respect to legal persons.

Once a restructuring procedure has begun, the outcome will either be a compulsory composition, the bankruptcy of the debtor, or that the debtor becomes solvent. To commence the restructuring procedure, the debtor must be insolvent. The bankruptcy court will appoint a restructuring administrator and a restructuring accountant.

Konkursloven kapitel 2: Indholdet af en rekonstruktion - Themis
https://www.themis.dk/synopsis/.../Konkursloven_kapitel_2.ht...

§ 15. ***Skyldneren må ikke foretage dispositioner af væsentlig betydning uden tilsynets samtykke***. Betaling af gæld må kun ske i overensstemmelse med konkursordenen, eller hvis betaling er nødvendig for at afværge tab.

Stk. 2. Skyldneren skal aflægge regnskab over for tilsynet efter dettes nærmere bestemmelse.

Stk. 3. Tilsynet kan antage fornøden sagkyndig bistand.

Stk. 4. Er der nedsat et kreditorudvalg, skal tilsynet forud underrette udvalget om påtænkte, særlig væsentlige dispositioner. Endvidere skal tilsynet forud underrette fordringshaverne om sådanne dispositioner, medmindre de er nødvendige af hensyn til bevarelsen af skyldnerens virksomhed, rimelig varetagelse af fordringshavernes fælles interesser i øvrigt eller erhvervelsen af dagliglivets fornødenheder.

Stk. 5. Såfremt fordringshavere, der repræsenterer en fjerdedel af de kendte usikrede fordringshavere, gør indsigelse mod gennemførelsen af påtænkte dispositioner som nævnt i stk. 4, må disse kun gennemføres, såfremt tilsynet indkalder fordringshaverne til et møde og et flertal af de mødte fordringshavere godkender dispositionerne. I begge henseender er fordringernes beløb afgørende. Har der været udsendt underretning til fordringshaverne, jf. stk. 4, 2. pkt., skal indsigelsen være kommet frem til tilsynet inden 7 dage efter underretningens afsendelse.

§ 16 e. Betalingsstandsningen ophører endvidere, hvis:

1) skyldneren tilbagekalder anmeldelsen,
2) forhandling om tvangsakkord åbnes,
3) gældssaneringssag indledes,
4) konkursdekret afsiges, eller
5) tre måneder fra fristdagen er forløbet.

Stk. 2. Skifteretten kan under ganske særlige omstændigheder forlænge den i stk. 1, nr. 5, nævnte frist med indtil tre måneder ad gangen, hvis skyldneren anmoder herom inden fristens udløb. Fristen kan dog ikke forlænges ud over i alt et år fra fristdagen. En anmodning om forlængelse skal være skriftlig og indeholde en redegørelse for baggrunden for og formålet med forlængelsen. Anmodningen skal være vedlagt en udtalelse fra tilsynet og, hvis der er nedsat et kreditorudvalg, tillige en udtalelse fra dette. Skifteretten kan indkalde fordringshaverne til et møde, jf. § 13, med henblik på at drøfte spørgsmålet om forlængelse.

Stk. 3. Ophører betalingsstandsningen efter stk. 1, nr. 1, eller efter § 13, stk. 1-2, eller § 16 d, eller ***forlænger skifteretten fristen efter stk. 2, skal tilsynet inden en uge give meddelelse herom*** til samtlige kendte fordringshavere.

supervisory authority


Explanation:
This could be referring to Finanstilsynet (Danish Financial Supervisory Authority) or some other similar authority. You may be able to find a reference elsewhere in the text to tell you exactly which supervisory authority is being referred to. Otherwise, you can simple say "supervisory authority"

I just took a closer look at the text for "Forslag til Lov om ændring af konkursloven og forskellige andre love" and it is indeed the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority that is being referred to, so I would recommend translating it as either the "supervisory authority" or the FSA.
