Ffrench's book offers a way out of the pervasive confusion that has frustrated efforts of companies attempting to deal with foreign regulatory practices. Designed as a practical, comprehensive guide, it is the only work to present securities law and regulation for all of North, Central, and South America. In addition it provides details concerning various nations' business organizations, regulatory institutions, anti-trust laws, foreign investment laws, laws of insider trading, and labor laws. The author includes complete coverage of the intricate statutory regulations and case law of the United States and Canada, and he advances reform proposals that would simplify take-over and merger regulation in these and other countries.
