This is intended as a guide for foreign entrepreneurs investing and establishing or restructuring an enterprise in a European country. It analyzes which legal form of company is most suitable, details the necessary procedures and deals with the basic rules governing the operation of a business. Rather than present an in-depth, theoretical analysis of these issues, the authors have strived to provide highly practical and clear answers of use both to practising lawyers and businessmen. The work covers ten European jurisdictions and was compiled by the legal services practices of member firms of Ernst & Young International and in association with law firms co-operating with Ernst & Young.
