The PLC Cross-border Doing Business in… Handbook is a multi-jurisdictional guide giving practical information on the legal system and key laws in 58 jurisdictions. In each country-specific Q&A, a standard set of questions relating to the legal system and key laws is answered by a member firm of Lex Mundi, the world's leading association of independent law firms. The Q&A guide aims to give a structured overview of the key practical issues including, for example, employment relationships, regulating redundancies and mass layoffs, tax and social security contributions, and intellectual property rights. In addition, answers to questions can be compared across a number of jurisdictions to assist in the management of cross-border transactions (see Country Q&A tool).
