The Faculty of Law (UP Law) and the Faculty of Economic and Management Sciences (EMS) at the University of Pretoria (UP) are excited to announce the introduction of an MPhil in Insolvency and Business Rescue, the first degree of its kind in South Africa.

Why study a combination of Insolvency and Business Rescue?

Studying insolvency law combined with business rescue will enable the graduate to gain a detailed understanding of the legal, financial, economic and governance issues underpinning debt finance and recovery. Graduates will also gain advanced knowledge of theoretical and practical issues guiding formal and informal debt restructuring procedures. This unique master’s programme combines modules from business and law making it the first cross-disciplinary local degree of its kind and one of the few programmes addressing insolvency related issues in South Africa.
