About
Overview
Dr Hamiisi Junior Nsubuga is a Senior Lecturer in Law at the City Law School, City University London. He holds a LL.B. from the University of London, a PGDL, LL.M. (Corporate Law) and a PhD (Law) from Nottingham Trent University. Dr Hamiisi is an active member of several leading institutions in the field of Corporate Law, Corporate Insolvency Law, International Business Law and Banking and financial Law. He is a Member of INSOL International (Academic Section), INSOL Europe (Early Researcher Academics) and the British Institute of International and Comparative Law.
He is co-convenor of the Spotlight Series on Insolvency and Corporate Governance Africa - under the Commercial Law Research Network Nigeria (CLRNN) and an Editorial Board Member of the INSOL Africa Newsletter. He has published scholarly articles, books and book chapters on Comparative Insolvency Law and Business/Corporate Law broadly conceived, but with the main focus on the theoretical and conceptual underpinnings of corporate insolvency law regimes of the UK, the USA and the Developing economies, such as Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania and Nigeria.
His Book, Employee Rights in Corporate Insolvency - a UK and US Perspective (Routledge, London) analyses the intersection between the US Bankruptcy/Insolvency systems, especially under the US Bankruptcy Code and UK insolvency framework's approaches to corporate rescue and restructuring broadly conceived, and in particular, how such approaches address employee rights on corporate insolvency. These approaches are then analysed in light of the insolvency and corporate rescue systems of emerging economies, such as Uganda, Nigeria, and Kenya in his subsequent published work.
