With a methodology that combines comparative, ‘black letter’, legal historical and empirical approaches, the author addresses such issues and topics as the following:
- – determination of applicable law both upon and after a transfer;
- – jurisdictional issues;
- – the main provisions of the Acquired Rights Directive and their content;
- – the main differences existing among the relevant laws of the Member States;
- – special characteristics of the maritime sector and seagoing workers; and
- – cross-border implications of Brexit.
This book critically evaluates the existing rules on international jurisdiction and the con ict of laws relating to cross-border transfers of undertakings, clearly exposing the regime’s merits and demerits.
Counsel representing any actor involved in a cross-border merger, acquisition, or business restructuring – transferor, transferee, or affected employees – will be well served with this exemplary account of their legal position both before and after the transfer. In addition, policymakers, legislators and interested academics will bene t greatly from the author’s clearly presented guidelines on the development of an EU-wide con ict of laws regime for transfers of undertakings.
