International Mergers & Acquisitions Law is an authoritative, insiders perspective on the ins and outs of M&A transactions around the world. Covering nearly thirty countries, the chapters in this book provide insight on the regulations and procedures that govern mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, takeovers, and other types of cross-border transactions. Each chapter is authored by local attorneys who discuss the most important elements of M&A in their respective countries, from due diligence and securing representations and warranties to the negotiation process and strategies for successfully closing a deal. This book takes readers beyond the laws that exist on paper and provides practical information for foreign businesses on the current legal environment, relevant case law, and standard business practices.
