The European Community's Ucits Directive, Patrick J. Paul
The European Community's Ucits Directive, Patrick J. Paul
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
As the twenty-first century approaches, the world is undergoing massive change. Social, political, and economic barriers are being torn down; new alliances are forming, as are new barriers. Economic stability and supremacy have replaced military supremacy in the hierarchy of a nation's policy objectives. The European Community's move toward a single market exemplifies this policy shift.
This Note focuses on one element of these global changes--internationalization of the securities market. The Note begins with an overview of the international securities market and the reasons for its increased globalization. The Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act) that, in part, …

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce
The purpose of this Note is to assess the potential for successful business ventures in the C.S.F.R. in relation to the 1990 amendments to the Act. This Note will first discuss the needs and concerns of U.S. business persons who, until now, have been hesitant to join their Western European counterparts in establishing a business presence in the Eastern European marketplace.

Private Property Investment, Lucas And The Fairness Doctrine, John R. Nolon
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
These remarks are not intended to advocate the interests of the new property rights movement. In fact, those advocates will be disappointed by what I say. Rather, I aspire to view the issue of real property regulation as broadly as possible, reaching beyond the jurisprudence of regulatory takings cases into the realms of real estate transactions law and comprehensive land use planning.
A Theoretic Analysis Of Corporate Auctioneers Liability Regimes, Randall Thomas, Robert G. Hansen
A Theoretic Analysis Of Corporate Auctioneers Liability Regimes, Randall Thomas, Robert G. Hansen
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
In Schneider v. Lazard Freres & Co. a New York appellate court greatly expanded the liability of investment advisers working as corporate auctioneers. Under this new legal regime, auctioneer/advisers accused of simple negligence are exposed to billions of dollars of potential legal liabilities. This article first reviews the existing law covering auctioneer/advisers and shows that the Schneider decision conflicts with the law governing general auctioneers and with the law governing the role of advisers and directors during the sale of the corporate control. Next, using an auction-theoretic framework, this Article shows that Schneider will likely result in: (1) increased indemnification …
