Berbagai persoalan yang berkembang dalam berbagai perkara-perkara kepailitan yang terjadi di Indonesia masih memiliki banyak kelemahan, terutama apabila menyangkut kepailitan terhadap perusahaan asing dalam bentuk holding company. Perusahaan grup semakin mendominasi kegiatan usaha dan memiliki peran penting dalam pembangunan. Konstruksi perusahaan grup terpisah secara hukum namun berada dalam satu kesatuan ekonomi. Permohonan PKPU oleh anak perusahaan terhadap holding company yang berakhir pailit dalam satu perusahaan grup merupakan hal yang tidak biasa. Permohonan PKPU tersebut terjadi pada kasus kepailitan AcrossAsia Limited sebagai holding company yang berkedudukan di Hong Kong dan dipailitkan oleh anak perusahaannya yaitu PT. First Media Tbk. Apakah permohonan PKPU tersebut sesuai dengan kaidah-kaidah hukum kepailitan, bagaimana tanggung jawab holding company yang pailit terhadap anak perusahaan dalam satu perusahaan grup, dan apa saja hambatan dalam penerapan cross-border insolvency dalam hukum kepailitan terkait adanya putusan pengadilan asing. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum yuridis normatif, dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, kasus, sejarah, dan pendekatan analisis. Kepailitan terhadap holding company oleh anak perusahaan merupakan penyalahgunaan kekuasaan holding company dan trik bisnis yang memanfaatkan instrumen hukum kepailitan untuk menghindari kewajiban terhadap pihak ketiga. Hukum kepailitan di Indonesia perlu merumuskan insolvensi tes terhadap permohonan pailit debitor, hal tersebut diperlukan agar tidak terjadi kepailitan terhadap perusahaan yang masih solven. Dalam pengaturan cross-border insolvency, UU Kepailitan Indonesia belum mengakomodasi aturan mengenai cross-border insolvency dalam UNCITRAL Model Law. Hal tersebut menyulitkan proses eksekusi harta debitor pailit di luar negeri dan pemerintah Indonesia juga perlu melakukan perjanjian bilateral maupun multilateral dengan negara lain dalam hal pengakuan putusan pengadilan asing.
