Corporate Law and Practice of the Netherlands:Legal and Taxation (Loeff Legal Series, 6.)
Corporate and tax laws in Europe keep changing, largely as a result of European Commission initiatives. These changes provide protection to creditors and investors, but also lead to a lack of harmonisation. Significant differences between the national systems continue, often the result of historical or cultural differences between the European countries. Netherlands corporate law represents the traditional Dutch Delta Model for corporate law but is also a particular expression of a modern, industrialised country. Netherlands tax law reflects its friendly attitude toward Netherlands-based multinationals and the investment-friendly attitude of the administration. This work provides an in-depth look at Netherlands corporate law. Topics discussed include: + unique qualities of Netherlands corporate law, + selecting a business organisational form, + types of corporations, + corporate litigation, + duties of board members, + taxation of companies, and + mergers and acquisitions. Corporate Law and Practice of the Netherlands is the only detailed, English-language treatise focusing specifically on Dutch corporate law, making it an unmatched resource for investors, businesspeople, professional advisors, and academics.
