Fletcher International Insolvency Law Moot

The Fletcher International Insolvency Law Moot or Fletcher Moot is an international moot court competition on international insolvency law and international commercial litigation organised by Queensland University of Technology. The moot, which is named after Professor Ian Fletcher, was established in 2017 as the first ever moot on cross-border insolvency law.[1][2] The venue of the moot rotates every year and has thus far been held in four countries.

There is one qualifying written round, and the oral round finals are held in conjunction with conference proceedings organised by, among others, INSOL International and the International Insolvency Institute. Each team argues in up to four preliminary matches; in the first two editions, the top four teams qualified for the knockout stages. In 2019, quarterfinals were introduced for the first time.
