![]() AcademicsBy creating an Academics page, the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy (OSB) hopes to stimulate interest among academics in multidisciplinary and comparative research on insolvency issues. Insolvency Research InitiativeThe Insolvency Research Initiative was established by the OSB to increase the body of knowledge about the Canadian insolvency system. Multidisciplinary and comparative research on insolvency issues, including analytical studies of the social and public policy environment, are being conducted by academics at Canadian universities. These and other research projects are discussed at annual OSB symposiums. Six research projects have been completed so far. The results of these projects were presented at the Insolvency Research Symposium organized by the OSB in January 2006 (see research papers below).
