Article L326-25 of the French Insurance Code

The adoption of a reorganisation measure or the opening of winding-up proceedings in a Member State of the European Union other than France does not affect the right of a creditor to invoke the set-off of his claim against the claim of the insurance undertaking, where such set-off is permitted by the law applicable to the claim of the insurance undertaking.

This provision shall not prevent the exercise of actions for voidness, voidability or unenforceability of acts detrimental to all creditors provided for by the law of the home State.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L326-25

L’adoption d’une mesure d’assainissement ou l’ouverture d’une procédure de liquidation dans un Etat membre de l’Union européenne autre que la France n’affecte pas le droit d’un créancier d’invoquer la compensation de sa créance avec la créance de l’entreprise d’assurance, lorsque cette compensation est permise par la loi applicable à la créance de l’entreprise d’assurance.

Cette disposition ne fait pas obstacle à l’exercice des actions en nullité, en annulation ou en inopposabilité des actes préjudiciables à l’ensemble des créanciers prévues par la loi de l’Etat d’origine.
