The Doing Business in… multi-jurisdictional guide is essential for those businesses operating – or thinking of operating - beyond their home market. Whether you are looking to actively enter a new market, setting up a manufacturing operation or simply running an import-export operation, the practical information on the legal system and key laws in 64 jurisdictions is invaluable.
The Q&A format provides in-house counsel with easy access summaries of the principal legal issues they are likely to encounter when doing business in jurisdictions other than their own. The chapters can be updated by their authors, as and when any developments occur, which ensures that all articles are as current and up to date as possible.

"PLC's Doing Business In... guide gave me an excellent overview on complex legal matters while on a plane to Mexico to instruct local legal counsel recently. It was an unfamiliar jurisdiction for me, but by the time I arrived I felt informed and comfortable walking into the meeting with the local experts."
