Die Arbeit untersucht den aktuell bestehenden rechtlichen Rahmen zur Anwendung des steuerlichen Nationalitatsprinzips und die Bedeutung der Staatsangehoerigkeit im deutschen Steuerrecht. Dabei stellt die Autorin die verfassungsrechtlichen, (allgemeinen) voelkerrechtlichen, abkommensrechtlichen und europarechtlichen Schranken der Anknupfung der Steuerpflicht an die Staatsangehoerigkeit dar und diskutiert die zu erwartenden Aufsichts- und Vollzugsdefizite bei der praktischen Umsetzung dieser Anknupfung.

Part of the Oxford EU Financial Regulation Series, The EU Crowdfunding Regulation provides an in-depth and timely analysis of the EU Crowdfunding Regulation, which is intended to make it easier for crowdfunding platforms to operate throughout the EU, and which came into force on 10 November 2021. The book answers legal questions raised by the Regulation, and assesses its impact on legal practice, considering the position of the various types of crowdfunding. The analysis is divided into six parts. The first two parts describe how the Regulation came into being and the role of the Regulation in European capital markets, before defining and assessing the scope of the Regulation. Parts three to five explain how the Regulation applies to the three main players in crowdfunding: the crowdfunding service providers; the project owners; and the investors who form the 'crowd', examining the relevant applicable obligations and safeguards. The final part looks at managing, preventing, and resolving crowdfunding-related disputes. Providing a balance between academic scrutiny and practical context (including consideration of how the Regulation interacts with UK law after Brexit) and drawing upon various aspects of financial law, consumer law, and dispute prevention/resolution, this book is invaluable for legal practitioners and academics looking for a single resource to elucidate this rapidly expanding mode of financing.

Wirtschaftskriminalitat ist eine ernstzunehmende und oft noch unterschatzte komplexe Bedrohung fur viele Unternehmen in der globalisierten Wirtschaftswelt. Oft werden insbesondere die Risiken aus der wachsenden Computerkriminalitat und der Wirtschaftsspionage unterschatzt. Das Kompendium zeigt ausgehend von authentischen Fallen aktuelle Begehensweisen ebenso auf, wie die typische wirtschaftskriminelle Basismethodik, deren Kenntnis wichtig ist, um die standig neu variierten Angriffsmethoden zu erkennen. Insbesondere wird praxisnah aufgezeigt, wie sich Unternehmen vor allem durch wirksame Sensibilisierungs- und Kontrollmassnahmen sowie eine effiziente Interne Revision vor Wirtschaftskriminalitat in unterschiedlichen internen und externen Auspragungsformen schutzen koennen.

A team of scholars with backgrounds in criminology, sociology, economics, business, government regulation, and law examine the historical, social, and cultural causes of the 2008 economic crisis. Essays probe the workings of the toxic subprime loan industry, the role of external auditors, the consequences of Wall Street deregulation, the manipulations of alpha hedge fund managers, and the "Ponzi-like" culture of contemporary capitalism. They unravel modern finance's complex schematics and highlight their susceptibility to corruption, fraud, and outright racketeering. They examine the involvement of enablers, including accountants, lawyers, credit rating agencies, and regulatory workers, who failed to protect the public interest and enforce existing checks and balances. While the United States was "ground zero" of the meltdown, the financial crimes of other countries intensified the disaster. Internationally-focused essays consider bad practices in China and the European property markets and draw attention to the far-reaching consequences of transnational money laundering and tax evasion schemes. By approaching the 2008 crisis from the perspective of white collar criminology, contributors build a more general understanding of the collapse and crystallize the multiple human and institutional factors preventing capture of even the worst offenders.

States' efforts to reform the international investment regime have triggered an arbitral backlash. In response to shortcomings of earlier investment agreements, states concluded a new generation of investment treaties that actively balances investment protection obligations with host country policy space. These new-generation agreements are more comprehensive, more precise, and include novel features such as general public policy exceptions. This book reviews the first set of awards rendered under those agreements and finds that new treaties have produced old interpretive outcomes in investment arbitration, and undermine state-driven investment reforms. Adopting a systemic, evidence-based, and interdisciplinary perspective, the book leverages new data that comprehensively reflects regime dynamics, employs state-of-the-art technology including legal data science to treat the text of more than 3000 investment agreements as data, and draws from a range of theoretical frameworks spanning from law and economics to complexity science. The result is a new and authoritative empirical account of the evolution and current state of the international investment regime.

Effectively implement comprehensive anti-money laundering regulations Handbook of Anti-Money Laundering details the most up-to-date regulations and provides practical guidance toward implementation. While most books focus on the regulations themselves, this useful guide goes further by explaining their meaning to bank operations, and how the rules apply to real-life scenarios. The international perspective provides a broader understanding of the anti-money laundering controls that are in place worldwide, with certain country-specific details discussed in-depth. Coverage includes the Wolfsberg Principles, Financial Action Task Force guidance, the U.S. Patriot Act, and the latest from both the EU and Bank for International Settlements. The IMF estimates that two to five per cent of the global GDP $590 billion to $1.5 trillion is laundered every year. Globally, banks and other financial institutions have been required to put in place specific arrangements to prevent and detect money laundering and the criminal activity that underlies it. This book provides the latest regulations and guidance toward application. * Understand what money laundering regulations mean in practice * Reference international and country-specific rules and regulations * Get up to speed on the most current regulations and practices * Implement the most effective anti-money laundering measures In response to the increased monitoring and regulation, money launderers have become more sophisticated at disguising the source of their funds. Financial institutions' employees must be ever more aware of what they're facing, and how to deal with it, making actionable guidance a critical companion to any regulatory information. For financial institutions seeking more thorough understanding and practical advice, the Handbook of Anti-Money Laundering is a comprehensive guide.

RA und Notar Peter Leonhardt, Berlin; Prof. Dr. Stefan Smid, Kiel; RA Prof. Dr. Mark Zeuner (Hrsg.), Hamburg; RA Katrin Amberger, Berlin. Mit der Aufhebung oder Einstellung des Insolvenzverfahrens endet die Tatigkeit des Insolvenzverwalters, der dann seine Vergutung als Verfahrenskosten nach Massgabe der Insolvenzrechtlichen Vergutungsverordnung (InsVV) geltend machen kann. Die Vergutung wird nach sog. "Regelsatzen" gewahrt, die sich nach dem Wert der Insolvenzmasse zur Zeit der Beendigung des Insolvenzverfahrens berechnet. Mittlerweile ist die Bedeutung der InsVV auch abseits der spektakularen Falle ("Funf Millionen Euro fur zehnwochige Tatigkeit " - "50 Millionen fur Kaufhaus-Insolvenzverwalter ") weiter gestiegen, da es um die angemessene Vergutung der Verwalter geht und entsprechend hart "gekampft" wird. Der Kommentar erlautert die InsVV praxisorientiert unter Berucksichtigung der neuesten Rechtsprechung und Literatur.

This book is the first to draw together the numerous different regulations which affect how commodities are traded in the EU. Having long been a largely deregulated industry, intense scrutiny in the aftermath of the global financial crisis has left commodities trading subject to a raft of harmonized regulations, many of which have yet to be finalized. Regulation of both the physical and the financial commodities markets is undergoing significant change and participants and their advisors are struggling to understand the changes in each jurisdiction as well as the cross-border implications. The book pulls together these various pieces of EU legislation and examines how they influence the way that commodities are traded in Europe. It also provides coverage of regulation at domestic level in key jurisdictions active in the marketplace, namely the UK, USA, Switzerland, and Singapore. Divided into eight sections, the book includes analysis of the commodities trading houses (including their motives and methods), the main trading venues, trading practices, and potential illicit practices and market abuses. Each section has a detailed transnational component in which the position in each specific jurisdiction is explained, drawing parallels and setting out the differences between these countries. This extremely topical publication is an essential reference work for all those advising on or researching the increasingly complex and globalized field of commodities trading.
