Book announcement – International jurisdiction and applicable law in relation to companies

The lawyers of our office Markou Christiana and Zantira Georgia have contributed to the writing of the book ‘The Private International Law of Companies in Europe’, which provides an up-to-date analysis on the private international law of companies. The book is based on a study supported by the European Commission, the purpose of which was to evaluate the practical problems caused by the lack of harmonisation of the conflict-of-law rules concerning companies and the possibilities for harmonising such rules, as well as to conduct a comparative analysis of the provisions of private international law in the 28 Member States. The lawyers of our office have prepared the Country Report for Cyprus that discusses the Private International Law of companies in Cyprus and addresses matters including, but not limited to, the connecting factor, the scope of the lex societatis, outreach statutes and the possibility of reincorporations in Cyprus law.
