“The term ‘centre of a debtor’s main interests’ in article 3(1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 1346/2000 was to be interpreted by reference to European Union law, which attached greater importance to the place of the company’s central administration, in particular the place of its registered office. Where a company’s registered office was transferred before the lodging of a request to open insolvency proceedings, its centre of main activities was presumed to be the place of its new registered office.”
