Public consultation third party effects transactions in securities and claims

The European Commission has published a public consultation on the conflict of law rules for third party effects of transactions in securities and claims.

The aim of the consultation is to ‘gather stakeholders’ views on the practical problems and types of risks caused by the current state of harmonisation of the conflict of laws rules on third party effects of transactions in securities and claims and to gather views on possibilities for improving such rules’.

The public consultation will be open till 30 June 2017.

Thanks to Paulien van der Grinten (Ministry of Security and Justice, the Netherlands) for the tip-off.
