Summary
The conflict of law rules applicable to companies, partnerships and other business enterprises are currently in the process of reorientation due to numerous decisions handed down by the ECJ. Michael Lamsa examines which law should be applied to the formation, use and protection of the (registered) name of foreign business enterprises, focusing on the specifications of primary and secondary European Community law. He demonstrates that the overlaying application of substantive German corporate law principles to the name of a foreign business enterprise does not infringe on European Community law.
