At the meeting, the participants also discussed the solutions to a number of difficult issues involved in their representations. “Tricky Lending”, a new type of crime, has seriously violated the legitimate rights and interests of the mass, disrupted the order of the financial market, and affected social harmony and stability. According to guiding cases and judicial interpretations of the Supreme People's Court and relevant documents of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the participants had a lively discussion on issues such as “how can one protect the debtor's rights and interests in the case of ‘Tricky Lending’?” and “should the principal be confiscated as a criminal tool?” Issues such as debt-to-equity swap and equity replacement in a shareholder's contribution with creditor’s rights also sparked a heated discussion.
