Key legal question
Whether the debtor made solvency plausible under Art. 174 SchKG by producing signed loan agreements
Extracted holding
Yes. Signed loan agreements for relatively modest amounts can suffice to make solvency plausible when the debtor’s ongoing income covers living and business expenses and the loans would cover all enforced debts.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 174 SchKG requires plausibility, not strict proof or even predominating probability. The cantonal court wrongly demanded proof of the lenders’ solvency although the existing facts already supported the debtor’s ability to pay.
