Trustee OS für Deutschland

The operating system for the Insolvenzverwalter.

Built on the Insolvenzordnung, for Regelinsolvenzverfahren, Eigenverwaltung and Schutzschirmverfahren.

The framework

Four procedures.

Regelinsolvenzverfahren (§ 27 InsO)

The Insolvenzgericht appoints an Insolvenzverwalter and fixes both a Berichtstermin and a Prüfungstermin.

Eigenverwaltung (§ 270 InsO)

The debtor retains control under a Sachwalter's supervision.

Schutzschirmverfahren (§ 270d InsO)

Up to three months to file an Insolvenzplan.

StaRUG

Preventive restructuring outside insolvency, in force since 1 January 2021.

The role

What the Insolvenzverwalter has to do.

  1. 01

    Receive every Forderungsanmeldung directly, not the court (§ 174 InsO), and offer a secure electronic channel for it (§ 174 Abs. 4).

  2. 02

    Enter every claim in the Insolvenztabelle and lodge it at the registry (§ 175).

  3. 03

    Examine claims by amount and rank at the Prüfungstermin (§ 176).

  4. 04

    Draw up the Masseverzeichnis, the Gläubigerverzeichnis and the Vermögensübersicht (§§ 151–153).

  5. 05

    Report on the economic position and its causes at the Berichtstermin (§ 156).

  6. 06

    Hold estate funds in an Insolvenz-Sonderkonto per estate.

  7. 07

    Account to the court (§ 66).

  8. 08

    Publish to insolvenzbekanntmachungen.de (§ 9).

The statute is exact. The tabulation behind it is still manual.

Why now, specifically

Insolvenzamtsträgergesetz.

Caseload rose 10.3% in 2025 while the number of appointed administrators roughly halved over a decade — from 3,557 in 2016 to 1,898.

On 24 July 2026 the Federal Ministry of Justice published a draft Insolvenzamtsträgergesetz that would replace court-by-court pre-selection lists with a national licence, a mandatory examination, and a federal register recording each practitioner's qualification, experience and office capacity. Capacity is about to become a matter of public record.
