Download or read book Kingdom of the Netherlands Netherlands written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-04-19 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Netherlands has a long-standing legal framework concerning Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism preventive measures, which dates back to 1993. The legal framework for Customer Due Diligence is generally adequate; however, a number of provisions are problematic. The Dutch system of preventive measures emphasizes the risk-based approach, complemented by a principles-based approach. The principles-based approach should be better supported with guidance for financial institutions. Although most elements of the Suspicious Transaction Report reporting requirements are in place, the reporting regime has one minor legal shortcoming and raises effectiveness concerns.

Download or read book Dutch Pension Funds written by Rene Maatman and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of their size, Dutch pension funds are of great importance to the international financial markets. The total value of Dutch pension assets is close to 500 bln (2004). Dutch pension funds have recently been the focus of public attention. The ageing of the population and volatile investment results (in terms of surpluses and shortfalls) have contributed to this. Maatman explains the legal relationships between the pension fund and its economic stakeholders. He describes the organisational structures through which the pension contract is implemented and makes clear what the stakeholders may expect from the pension fund as an asset manager. He focuses in particular on the pension fund as a fiduciary, a concept which has its origin in Roman law and which is particularly developed in Anglo-American trust law. It is also recognised in Dutch law. Maatman demonstrates great knowledge of the pension fund industry, and discusses many key issues very authoritatively. His work is of great importance to legal scholars and practitioners, both in the Netherlands and abroad.

Download or read book Sukuk Structures Legal Engineering Under Dutch Law written by Omar Salah and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sukuk is the Arabic name for financial certificates. Sukuk securities are structured to comply with Islamic law and its investment principles, which prohibit the charging or paying of interest. This book is the first to set out how sukuk transactions can be structured under Dutch private law and covers the Islamic and Dutch legal issues involved. It explains the fundamentals of Islamic finance and analyzes Islamic contract, property, corporate, and finance law. The book describes how Islamic finance principles, such as riba (in short: prohibition on interest) and gharar (avoidance of contractual uncertainty), have contributed to the development of Islamic finance contracts. It examines the legal structure of sukuk transactions and the applicable Islamic finance rules, and it scrutinizes three main sukuk transactions (the sukuk al-musharaka, the sukuk al-murabaha, and the sukuk al-ijarah) under Dutch private law, mainly focusing on Dutch contract, property, insolvency, and corporate law. The book concludes that there are no legal obstacles to introducing Islamic finance in the Netherlands. Sukuk Structures: Legal Engineering under Dutch Law will be of interest to academics and practitioners in the field of banking and finance law.
