Abstrak Corporate Rescue Concept adalah suatu upaya untuk menyelamatkan perusahaan dari kepailitan agar usahanya tetap bisa berjalan dan utangnya kepada para kreditur dapat dibayar. Konsep sudah diterapkan di negara-negara lain. Peneliti tertarik untuk melakukan penelitian tentang bagaimana konsep Corporate Rescue diatur di dalam Undang Undang Kepailitan dan diupayakan dalam praktek kepailitan di Indonesia serta bagaimana urgensi Corporate Rescue dikaitkan dengan proses kepailitan di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian hukum normatif karena yang dianalis adalah data sekunder berupa undang-undang, putusan hakim dan laporan hasil rapat-rapat kreditur dalam proses kepailitan dikaitkan dengan konsep Corporate Rescue. Sebagai data dukung juga digunakan buku, jurnal dan paper, selanjutnya hasil penelitian diuraikan dalam bentuk deskriptif analitis. Konsep Corporate Rescue telah tersirat di dalam Undang Undang Kepailitan di Indonesia di dalam ketentuan tentang penundaan kewajiban pembayaran utang, karena tujuan dari Penundaan Kewajiban Pembayaran Utang (PKPU) adalah untuk merestrukturisasi utang debitur pada para krediturnya, namun restrukturisasi utang tidak diatur lebih lanjut di dalam Undang Undang Kepailitan atau ketentuan hukum lainnya. Konsep Corporate Rescue juga belum menjadi pola pikir hakim maupun Kurator/Pengurus dalam proses kepailitan maupun PKPU. Fokus para kreditur masih pada konsep likuidasi harta debitur agar piutang mereka dapat dibayar oleh debitur. Berdasarkan Undang Undang Kepailitan di Indonesia, perusahaan-perusahaan yang solvent dan perusahaan yang bergerak di bidang pemenuhan kebutuhan dasar manusia mudah untuk dipailitkan apabila perusahaan tersebut tidak membayar utang yang sudah jatuh tempo dan dapat ditagih pada salah satu krediturnya. Agar perusahaan tersebut dan para kreditur konkurennya dapat diselamatkan, dibutuhkan penerapan konsep Corporate Rescue, oleh karena itu konsep tersebut harus diadopsi ke dalam Undang Undang Kepailitan di Indonesia, dan harus disosialisasikan kepada hakim, kurator dan masyarakat, agar dapat dimengerti manfaat dari konsep tersebut.
