Notícias Portugal5 September 2026 at 09:20

In January 2026, the Centre for Judicial Studies organized a colloquium dedicated to insolvency law, bringing together specialists and professionals in the field to discuss topics relevant to the legislation and practice of this legal branch. The debates focused on the economic and social implications of insolvency, as well as analyzing practical cases that reflect the reality faced by companies and individuals in financial difficulty.

As a result of the meeting, a compilation was released that brings together articles and presentations from participants, with the aim of expanding knowledge on crucial issues surrounding the topic. The publication seeks not only to inform, but also to encourage reflection on the importance of insolvency law as a tool in addressing economic and financial crises.

An accessible e-book was made available online, containing the discussions and analyses carried out during the colloquium. The authorities of the Centre for Judicial Studies highlight that understanding the legal aspects of insolvency is fundamental for an effective response to the difficulties faced by companies and citizens.

Those interested can access the e-book through the CEJ website, where they will find resources and relevant information about the complexities of insolvency law. The source of the news is the General Secretariat of the Ministry of Justice.

Banking activity will continue to be at the core of the Portuguese financial system

In an interview with Advocatus, Francisco Soares Machado, partner at Sérvulo & Associados, analyses the current moment in the Portuguese financial sector, considering it very positive, with high levels of capital, liquidity, record profits and low impairment. The former European Investment Bank advisor and Ministry of Finance staffer argues that bank performance results from both favorable cyclical factors and the merit of their management teams. He identifies challenges such as digital transformation, payment fraud and European regulation, but believes banking will continue to be at the core of the system. He points to opportunities for investors in closing banking positions and in debt funds, alternative asset management and financing of energy transition projects, highlighting that Portugal has competitive conditions in these segments, although the fund market is still small compared to other European countries.

Spotify co-founder says he would leave Sweden if wealth tax were adopted in the country

Martin Lorentzon, Spotify's cofounder, said he would leave Sweden immediately if the country adopts new taxes on large fortunes, raising fears that proposals debated before elections could drive entrepreneurs and capital abroad. When asked if he would consider changing countries, Lorentzon responded affirmatively by email to Bloomberg, saying he would prefer to stay, but a tax of this type would force him to leave. The alert comes as the Left Party campaigns for a billionaire tax and the Green Party proposes separate taxation on the wealthiest, both in the center-left opposition led by the Social Democrats.

The frequency may vary depending on bathroom ventilation, ambient humidity, and drying time.
