The regulations in detail:
The maximum payment period for the payment of reorganization quotas following judicial reorganization proceedings is extended to three years.
There is a longer payment period for 2021 within which remediation must be completed: The remediation quota, e.g. 20% (of the total debt), may now be paid split over three years. Usually, the quotas were previously divided into an immediate quota of at least 5% and three further 5% quotas within two years. It will become clear in practice whether an immediate quota must continue to be paid and how many further quotas will be necessary.
