This paper compares the Ethiopian bankruptcy law with modern laws of bankruptcy of four se lected countries and international guidelines/principles for the same. The laws are the US and France bankruptcy laws from the debtor-friendly bankruptcy laws and the German and British bankruptcy laws from the creditor-friendly bankruptcy laws. The international guide lines are the World Bank Principles and Guidelines for Effective Inso lvency and Creditor Rights Systems and the Un ited Nations Commission on International Trade Law, Legislative Guide on Insolvency Law.
