International Contracting: Best Practices In Structure and Legal Review

October 2007ContractGeneral

Abstract

Globalisation creates mixed emotions for the in-house counsel. While voyages of discovery – real or metaphorical – can be exciting, international business brings with it greater complexity and risk. This often translates into frustrating delays and long lead times while the lawyers and affected business units build internal consensus and undertake reviews and approvals of contract terms.
