Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business

The Comparative Law Yearbook of International Business, published under the auspices of the Center for International Legal Studies, in this 41st volume spans an arc from nuanced discussion of the notion of ‘creativity’ under various copyright regimes and product designations over corporate organization, acquisition and criminal conduct, regulation of payment services and tax evasion to dealing with disruptive behaviour in international arbitration. The authors, practitioners and academics from Japan, Poland, Romania, Greece, Turkey, Iran, Spain and England bring a medley of perspectives addressing developments and pressing legal issues for businesses that are engaged in international commerce and investment, such as the difficulty of prosecuting corporate crimes, disincentives for tax offenders to cooperate with authorities, and new paradigms for banking. What’s in this book: Among the broad spectrum of aspects, the book covers such issues and topics as the following: – reorganization of the concept of creativity by functions; – designation of products, business and entrepreneurs; – dividend distribution in public companies; – tax evasion, disproportionate punishment and lack of remedies; and – transposition of the European Payment Services Directive 2. How this will help you: As a scrutiny of the updated developments in the legal fields, this Yearbook helps readers gain insight into national and regional perspectives on the interpretation of laws. The presentation of the reports aids in understanding the impact of such legal developments in practice. Thus, this book serves as a source of knowledge for lawyers and academics to comprehend the changing legal rules and regulations and to confidently apply them in solving problems.
