Publisher's Synopsis
Fifteen years after the publication of my first reference book, The Limited in Germany, with this publisher, the legal landscape for entrepreneurs in Europe has changed fundamentally. Brexit has made the English Limited company unattractive or even untenable for many companies in the European Union. But it is not only the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the EU that is forcing entrepreneurs to look for new solutions for setting up their businesses - changing tax conditions, digitalisation and economic developments are also opening up new perspectives.
This book analyses the best alternatives to the English Limited in Europe and offers a comprehensive view of company formation in the Netherlands, Ireland, Slovenia, Portugal and Estonia. Which legal forms offer comparable flexibility? Where are the tax and administrative hurdles lowest? Which countries have the most attractive regulations for international entrepreneurs, digital business models and start-ups?
Based on current legal and economic developments, as well as on my many years of experience as an author and expert in European company law, this work provides practical solutions for entrepreneurs who want to build a future-proof corporate structure in Europe.
Bremen University Press has published over 4,500 specialist books in various languages over the past 15 years.
