The United States, Developing Countries And The Issue Of Intra-Enterprise Agreements, Joel Davidow
The United States, Developing Countries And The Issue Of Intra-Enterprise Agreements, Joel Davidow
Georgia Journal of International & Comparative Law
Antitrust issues have become one of the main concern of the world economy community and the United Nations. For many years, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development has multiplied the meetings to discuss the relationship between transnational enterprises and international investment and has engaged in reflections on methods to avoid a decline in international investment. However, these meetings failed to resolve the fundamental issue of the impact of international antitrust principles on restrictive arrangements between a foreign parent corporation and its local subsidiary, particularly where that subsidiary is in a developing country. If applied, multinational enterprises would be …
Basel Iii And The Future Of Project Finance Funding, Tianze Ma
Basel Iii And The Future Of Project Finance Funding, Tianze Ma
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
This paper seeks to analyze the new requirements in the Basel III banking regulatory framework and explore their impact on commercial banks’ project finance portfolio. The paper begins with a general introduction of the Basel Accords, followed by an analysis of the changes in the Basel III requirements and their potential impact on project finance, in particular the effects of the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and the net stable funding ratio (NSFR). The paper ends with a discussion of alternative sources of project finance funding that emerged as a result of the new regulatory regime.
Trans-Pacific Partnership: Continuity And Breakthroughs In U.S. Investment Treaty Practice, Charles Hendrickson Brower Ii
Trans-Pacific Partnership: Continuity And Breakthroughs In U.S. Investment Treaty Practice, Charles Hendrickson Brower Ii
Law Faculty Research Publications
In October 2015, the United States completed negotiations for the Trans- Pacific Partnership (“TPP”), a free trade agreement among twelve Pacific Rim states.1 According to the White House, TPP will “rewrite the rules of trade,” will include “high standards . . . that . . . upgrade our existing agreements,” and will “have a profound impact on . . . how we invest in the developing world.”2 By contrast, the leading presidential candidates from both parties offer distinctly negative assessments of TPP. Hillary Clinton has opined that TPP does not meet the “very high” bar she would set for producing …

A Quest For Consistency: The Meaning Of 'Direct' In The Foreign Trade Antitrust Improvements Act, Richard Lobas
A Quest For Consistency: The Meaning Of 'Direct' In The Foreign Trade Antitrust Improvements Act, Richard Lobas
Global Business Law Review
This note argues that the United States courts need to apply a more consistent interpretation of the meaning of "direct" within the context of the Foreign Trade Antitrust Improvements Act (FTAIA). The FTAIA serves to apply U.S. antitrust law, specifically the Sherman Act, to trade or commerce with foreign nations. One scenario in which this law may be applied is when trade or commerce with a foreign nation has a "direct, substantial, and reasonably foreseeable" effect on domestic commerce. However, courts purport to apply different standards to determine whether an effect is direct, leading to confusion and inconsistency. Contributing to …

The English East India Company And The Modern Corporation: Legacies, Lessons, And Limitations, Philip J. Stern
The English East India Company And The Modern Corporation: Legacies, Lessons, And Limitations, Philip J. Stern
Seattle University Law Review
The English East India Company was first chartered in 1600, endured until the late nineteenth century, and, in a clever act of corporate resurrection, has even recently returned as a global, upmarket retail outlet selling fine foods and commemorative coins. It has also endured in the popular imagination and culture, churning out heroes and villains alike in film, television, and video games. The script writer for a forthcoming BBC miniseries, in which the East India Company stars as the prime antagonist, even noted recently that the Company was like “the CIA, the NSA, and the biggest, baddest multinational corporation on …
Seeing Color: Implications Of The European Union's New Common Practice For Transatlantic Trademark Registration By United States Trademark Holders, Christine Park
Seattle University Law Review
This Note explores two issues related to the EU’s new common practice: (1) whether the new common practice will deter ongoing efforts to integrate trademark registration and protection at the international level; and (2) whether U.S. trademark holders, when expanding business into the EU, should register through the Madrid Protocol and obtain Community Trade Mark or register through a country’s trademark office. This Note argues that the new trademark practice hinders international efforts for standardizing trademark registration and that U.S. trademark holders should claim color when registering their marks with the EU.

Bank Frauds And Tracking The Hidden Assets, Albert F. Tellechea, Michael J. Cortes
Bank Frauds And Tracking The Hidden Assets, Albert F. Tellechea, Michael J. Cortes
Florida A & M University Law Review
Each year banks are the targets of insider and outsider fraudulent activity. Borrowers overstate their assets and holdings in order to obtain loans for which they would never otherwise qualify. Employees embezzle, steal, or conspire with crooked clients for a kickback, and billions are lost. Law enforcement agencies around the world are reporting increased instances of corporate, mortgage, and bank fraud. For example, the United States Federal Bureau of Investigations ("FBI") in its FY2007 Financial Crimes Report states that its corporate fraud cases doubled from five years earlier. Through FY2007, U.S. Grand Juries returned 183 indictments resulting in 173 convictions. …
Fashion Forward: The Need For A Proactive Approach To The Counterfeit Epidemic, Casey Tripoli
Fashion Forward: The Need For A Proactive Approach To The Counterfeit Epidemic, Casey Tripoli
Brooklyn Journal of International Law
In the last two decades, the overall activity of the counterfeit market has expanded and risen 10,000 percent. This dramatic shift corresponds to growth of the Internet, which has unified the fascination of obtaining cheap, illegitimate goods with the efficiency of a mouse click. With the expected continued inflation of the counterfeit market comes a host of new concerns, namely, how to determine who is responsible for the distribution of these knockoffs, and who should be ordained to limit them in the marketplace. In both the United States and the European Union, however, outdated laws produce a mélange of inadequate …
The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act: Imposing An American Definition Of Corruption On Global Markets, Mateo J. De La Torre
The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act: Imposing An American Definition Of Corruption On Global Markets, Mateo J. De La Torre
Cornell Law Library Prize for Exemplary Student Research Papers
Mateo de la Torre’s research had an international focus in examining the cross-cultural implications of Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA).
de la Torre’s research required a comparative analysis of foreign laws that are similar to the United States’ FCPA and included statutes, legislative histories, and commentary from Brazil, Japan, and the United Kingdom. He also consulted extensively with several members of the Cornell Law faculty. de la Torre’s findings provided the basis for his examination of the FCPA’s impact on nondomestic actors and markets, arguing that the United States’ aggressive stance belies the Act’s original purpose. He then presented frameworks …
