We are pleased to invite you to a seminar led by Professor Axel Kämmerer.

Deakin Law School‘s Centre for Comparative Corporate Governance present a seminar led by Prof. Axel Kämmerer who will give a legal perspective on Brexit and its ramifications.

The Focus of the Seminar

Prof. Axel Kämmerer will focus on how “hard” the Brexit ultimately will hit the European Union (EU) and its serious effects, not only on the institutions of the EU and its official languages, but also legal relations with its former member and the shaping of the so-called common policies of the EU. He will focus on several vital consequences, including what will become of British residents? What will happen to many British companies domiciled in EU Member States? Will international trade agreements continue to be valid in the UK and is the latter permitted to conclude new ones while still formally a Union member? Would British companies have to reregister in Frankfurt or Paris in order to gain market access?
