Corporate Law and Practice of the Netherlands:Legal, Works Councils and Taxation

Book excerpt: Corporate law is the heart of legal practice concerning foreign investments, business operations and rep-offices in The Netherlands. This book provides all the necessary details. Written by Steven R. Schuit, partner in the international law firm Allen & Overy, Amsterdam office, it has now been revised and updated by Barbara Bier, a longstanding expert as a deputy civil law notary. The relevant chapters on works councils and taxation were written by other Allen & Overy partners, who also have a background of advising business clients over a long period of time. This book is indispensable for business executives, accountants, lawyers, tax consultants, and business advisers. It is also now being used by several Dutch universities for their foreign students program. The cumulative index and the table of contents contribute greatly to its usefulness.
