This edited volume focuses on specific, crucially important structural measures that foster corporate change, namely cross-border mergers. Such cross-border transactions play a key role in business reality, economic theory and corporate, financial and capital markets law. Since the adoption of the Cross-border Mergers Directive, these mergers have been regulated by specific legal provisions in EU member states. This book analyzes various aspects of the directive, closely examining this harmonized area of EU company law and critically evaluating cross-border mergers as a method of corporate restructuring in order to gain insights into their fundamental mechanisms. It comprehensively discusses the practicalities of EU harmonization of cross-border mergers, linking it to corporate restructuring in general, while also taking the transposition of the directive into account. Exploring specific angles of the Cross-border Mergers Directive in the light of European and national company law, thebook is divided into three sections: the first section focuses on EU and comparative aspects of the Cross-border Mergers Directive, while the second examines the interaction of the directive with other areas of law (capital markets law, competition law, employment law, tax law, civil procedure). Lastly, the third section describes the various member states’ experiences of implementing the Cross-border Mergers Directive.

This third volume in the Springer Studies in Law and Geoeconomics series continues to advance the interdisciplinary field of investment control. With a primary focus on geoeconomic strategies, this book examines the evolving legal and regulatory frameworks that govern foreign direct investment (FDI).

By exploring these themes through an international, transnational, and comparative law perspective, the book offers valuable insights into the mechanisms and implications of investment controls in a globalized economy. Contributors provide a detailed analysis of current practices and propose innovative approaches to the challenges posed by FDI in contemporary geopolitical contexts. This book is an essential resource for policymakers, legal scholars, and practitioners involved in the regulation of international investments.
