Download or read book M A written by Philip Martinius and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essentials of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) practice can best be examined from a buyer's perspective. In a corporate transaction, it is the buyer who typically faces the more substantial risks. In many instances, legal problems exist of which the buyer must be aware before deciding to purchase the target company. The ongoing internationalization of the M&A market must also be taken into consideration. The integration of foreign concepts into local legal systems not only leads to a multitude of new questions, it also creates a challenge for any lawyer practicing in this area. Clients expect their professional advisors to handle legal problems likely to arise abroad and to communicate and cooperate efficiently with foreign counsel. The book features a collection of reports by experienced young practitioners from seventeen different jurisdictions, along with a general report for a working session organised by the Corporate Acquisitions and Joint Ventures and Tax Law Commissions of l'Association internationale des jeunes avocats (AIJA) for the AIJA Annual Congress in Lisbon in August 2002. Each national report follows the same structure as the general report, but from a local perspective. While the working session also covered tax issues (a whole other volume in itself!), this publication concentrates on such practical matters of legal risk as: powers of local authorities;determination of relevant market;conflict between antitrust authorities;time limits for negotiation and clearance;avoidance of multiple filings;standard notification clauses;protection of confidential information; andchallenge of competition authority decisions. A useful introduction on warranty and indemnity (W&I) insurance offers an insider's comprehensive outline of the latest developments in this field. The practical information in this book will be of great value to any lawyer dealing with M&A transactions, not only in the countries covered but in any country where M&A transactions occur, as these reports often contain valuable information and suggestions that hold true for other jurisdictions as well.

Download or read book Prohibition of Abuse of Law written by Rita de la Feria and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-06-09 with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Court of Justice has been alluding to 'abuse and abusive practices' for more than thirty years, but for a long time the significance of these references has been unclear. Few lawyers examined the case law, and those who did doubted whether it had led to the development of a legal principle. Within the last few years there has been a radical change of attitude, largely due to the development by the Court of an abuse test and its application within the field of taxation. In this book, academics and practitioners from all over Europe discuss the development of the Court's approach to abuse of law across the whole spectrum of European Union law, analysing the case-law from the 1970s to the present day and exploring the consequences of the introduction of the newly designated 'principle of prohibition of abuse of law' for the development of the laws of the EU and those of the Member States.

Download or read book The Enforcement of Directors Duties in Britain and Germany written by Hans-Christoph Hirt and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The power to control litigation in the company's name is normally vested in the board of directors. This gives rise to a conflict of interest whenever some or all of the directors breach their duties. In such a situation, the board's decision whether or not to litigate is potentially tainted because the wrongdoers are part of the decision-making process. The board as a whole is therefore an unsuitable decision-making body and the following question arises: who should decide whether it is in the company's interest to initiate litigation against the alleged wrongdoers? There are a number of different persons and bodies in which the decision-making power could be vested. The British approach is the reversion of management power to the shareholders in general meeting and, in certain restricted situations, the availability of the derivative action brought by a shareholder on behalf of the company. Both mechanisms give rise to significant difficulties. This book begins by explaining the board's conflict of interest, sets out a theoretical framework of legal strategies that cover the whole range of approaches to deal with it and analyses their strengths and weaknesses. The analysis consists of an assessment and comparison of four models of the enforcement of directors' duties, which are based on the current law and reform proposals in Britain and Germany. Particular reference is made to recent case law and its practical implications.

Download or read book Taxation of Intercompany Dividends Under Tax Treaties and EU Law written by Guglielmo Maisto and published by IBFD. This book was released on 2012 with total page 1093 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a detailed and comprehensive study on the taxation of cross-border dividend distributions. It first considers cross-border dividend taxation in the context of EU law. In this field, issues such as the jurisprudence of the European Court of Justice, the hindrance to the internal market caused by double taxation of dividends and the compatibility of dividend withholding taxes are dealt with. Next, the book discusses the taxation of dividends under tax treaties, in particular focusing on the definition of "dividends" in the OECD Model Convention and the meaning of the concept of "beneficial owner" as applied to dividends. The application of domestic and agreement-based anti-abuse rules to dividends is thoroughly analysed. Finally, the relevance of the non-discrimination provision enshrined in Art. 24 of the OECD Model Convention to dividends as well as procedural issues relating to treaty relief and possible ways of improvement are taken into consideration. Individual country surveys provide an in-depth analysis of the above issues from a national viewpoint in selected European and non-European jurisdictions.
