英国破产法对于债权人提出的破产申请,要求金额须在750英镑以上,且须发出法定格式的催款函,21天后若债务人仍未还款、提供令债权人满意的保证或和解时,债权人才可向法院提出申请。我国破产法对此只规定了债权人向法院申请债务人破产时需主张债务人不能清偿到期债务,法院主要依据债务人提出的异议进而决定是否作出受理裁定,对于债权人的破产申请资格和条件立法上没有做任何详细规定,英国的上述规定值得我国在今后的司法解释中进一步借鉴。

UK Insolvency Act specifies the precondition of application of winding up a debtor by creditor. It requires the creditor to serve a statutory demand stating and asking the debtor who is unable to repay the amount above 750 pound so due to pay the sum or to secure or compound for it to the reasonable satisfaction of the creditor within three weeks. After this procedure, the creditor has the right to present a petition to the court for the winding up of the debtor. The Bankruptcy Law in China requires creditor to file to court based on the fact that the debtor is unable to repay debt due and the court relies mainly on the debtor＇s objection thereafter. The legislation in China does not make any detailed and specific provisions with respect to the precondition and eligibility for creditor and creditor＇s application for bankruptcy. UK Insolvency Act is worthy of further reference for China＇s judicial interpretation.
