How can you enforce a judgement against your debtors’ assets in the Europe Union?

Creditors may face difficulties in retrieving the sum owed to them by a debtor and one of the reasons is that the debtors’ assets would not be found in Malta. Even with a judgement in favour of the creditor from the Maltese Courts, it can be difficult for them to attack a debtors’ assets which are not held locally due to the the time and money involved in instituting intermediary proceedings in a foreign court in order for the Maltese judgement to be recognised and subsequently enforced. Such court cases are referred to as exequatur proceedings, which refer to cases where a Court of one EU member state would need to recognise the judgement of another EU member state and declare its enforceability. This provides an extra hurdle for the creditor, since the debtor would have the opportunity to oppose the enforceability of the judgement against him in such other country.
