摘    要:
美国《2005年破产滥用预防及消费者保护法案》在一定程度上实现了近10年来美国银行等金融机构对破产法进行改革的愿望.针对日益严重的消费者滥用破产现象,2005年修正案提出了"收入测试"标准以限定消费者对破产清算程序的随意适用,自动冻结、自由财产和破产免责等制度也都本着强化债权人利益保护的理念作了相应的修订.新破产法最大限度地转变了对债务人的立场,强化了量化抑制破产滥用行为的功能,并建立了对美国经济的双向作用机制.

关 键 词:美国破产法  2005年修正案  消费者破产  收入测试

Abstract:
The American Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 is the most significant revision made by the Congress in the past 30 years,and to some extent has realized the reform hope of American financial institutions such as banks in the past 10 years.Aimed at preventing bankruptcy abuse,the 2005 Bankruptcy Act puts up with a"means test" as the eligibility requirement for bankruptcy applicants to file in Chapter 7.The revisions to automatic stay,exempt property and bankruptcy discharge also provide more protection for creditors' benefits.The 2005 Bankruptcy Act changes its attitude toward debtors to the full extent,enforces its function of quantificationally restraining bankruptcy abuse,and establishes a two-way function mechanism for American economy.
Keywords:American bankruptcy law   2005 Bankruptcy Act   consumer bankruptcy   means test
