1 Après distribution des deniers au sens de l’art. 172, al. 1, un solde éventuel est remis à la masse en faillite étrangère ou à ceux des créanciers qui y ont droit.
2 Ce solde ne peut être remis qu’après reconnaissance de l’état de collocation étranger.
3 Le tribunal suisse compétent pour la reconnaissance de la décision de faillite étrangère l’est aussi pour la reconnaissance de l’état de collocation étranger. Il examine notamment si les créanciers domiciliés en Suisse ont été admis équitablement à l’état de collocation étranger. Les créanciers concernés sont entendus.
1 At the request of the foreign bankruptcy administrator, it may be decided not to conduct auxiliary bankruptcy proceedings if no claims in the sense of Article 172 paragraph 1 have been filed.
2 Where creditors domiciled in Switzerland have filed claims other than those mentioned in Article 172 paragraph 1, the court may decide not to conduct auxiliary bankruptcy proceedings if appropriate account is taken of these creditors’ claims in the foreign proceedings. These creditors shall be heard.
3 The court may make its abstention subject to conditions and requirements.
4 Where the court decides not to conduct auxiliary bankruptcy proceedings, the foreign bankruptcy administrator may, subject to Swiss law, exercise all powers to which he or she is entitled under the law of the state in which the bankruptcy proceedings were opened; he or she may in particular transfer assets abroad and conduct litigation. These powers do not include the performance of sovereign acts, the use of coercive measures or the right to settle disputes.
