Drawing from experts in legal practice, academia, and the judiciary, Korean Business Law: The Legal Landscape and Beyond provides clear and concise explanations of what the law means in relation to South Korea's often complex and changing business law environment. This book is written for a diverse global audience, from lawyers to business leaders, from professors to students, both inside and outside of Korea.
Some of the many topics include: corporations, mergers and acquisitions, securities offerings, the Korean judicial system, intellectual property, project finance, private equity funds, competition law, broadcasting/telecommunications, renewable energy law, corporate governance, legal risk management, labor law, real estate, trade law, and torts.
