The European Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive (AIFMD) has been formulated as a response to the global financial crisis, which climaxed in the collapse of Lehman Brothers on 15 September 2008. The securitisation of real estate risks that came about by launching financial innovations such as asset-backed securities (ABS), mortgage-backed securities (MBS), collateralised debt obligations (CDO) or structured investment vehicles (SIV) contributed particularly to the fast worldwide circulation of ‘poisoned’ papers. Assuming that the financial crisis of 2008/2009 was the consequence of wrongfully set incentives that primarily concerned the fund managers’ remuneration, the Europe...
The book deals with tax planning with holding companies located in Europe, Asia of the Caribbean. It analyses the problem of repatriating U.S. profits from Europe, going far beyond the routing of income via different companies. Instead, the approach includes an analysis of the interdependencies between international tax competition, holding company regimes, and tax planning concepts in order to establish a basis for tax planning measures regardless of the fast changing legal environment for holding companies in the different countries.
The effect of the significant changes in tax law at domestic, European, and international levels on investment funds, an important part of global financial services, creates a complex environment for practitioners and a source of debate for academics and policymakers. This is the first book to provide a comprehensive legal and practical analysis of the changes to the complex multilevel tax and regulatory framework concerning different types of investment funds.

Until recently, Germany appeared to be a paragon of economic and political success. Angela Merkel was widely seen as the true 'leader of the free world', and Germany's export-driven economic model seemed to deliver prosperity. But recent events – from Germany's dependence on Russian gas to its car industry's delays in the race to electric – have undermined this view. In Kaput, Wolfgang Münchau argues that the weaknesses of Germany's economy have, in fact, been brewing for decades. The neo-mercantilist policies of the German state, driven by close connections between the country's industrial and political elite, have left Germany technologically behind over-reliant on authoritarian Russia and China – and with little sign of being able to adapt to the digital realities of the 21st century. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the future of Europe's biggest economy.
Title of the first 10 volumes of the series is Germans to America : lists of passengers arriving at U.S. ports 1850-1855.
Als Rechtsanwender ist die Auflegung eines Private Equity-Fonds in Deutschland mit dem Risiko der Gewerblichkeit behaftet, was zu einem Standortnachteil im internationalen Vergleich führt. Dieser Nachteil wird durch die aktuell herrschende Rechtsunsicherheit bei der Abgrenzung der privaten Vermögensverwaltung von der Gewerblichkeit verstärkt. Aus diesem Grund ist das Ziel von Felix Ritter die Schaffung einer klaren gesetzlichen Lösung mit einer zwingenden Einordnung als vermögensverwaltend. Durch Rechtsvergleichung anderer Private Equity-Gesetze, vornehmlich aus Spanien und Frankreich, stellt der Autor Eckpfeiler eines deutschen Private Equity-Gesetzes auf. Des Weiteren weist er nach, inwieweit § 4 Nr. 8 h UStG als deutsche Umsetzungsvorschrift europarechtswidrig und daher anpassungspflichtig ist. Der Autor: Dr. Felix Ritter, LL.M., hat an der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin studiert und promoviert, seinen Master of Laws in Madrid absolviert und ist aktuell Rechtsreferendar am Kammergericht Berlin.
