This book, published by the ABA Forum on Franchising, provides a thoughtful, useful, and succinct reference for franchise practitioners to use in navigating the uncharted waters of international franchise sales laws. Since the majority of these laws are quite new, the novelty of the laws, the different regulatory schema used, and the different substantive and formal requirements all present challenging questions to franchise counsel and their clients seeking to comply. Their scope, administrative implementation, and judicial interpretation are largely untested. That said, as franchisors in the United States and other countries expand beyond their home borders, there is need for some guide to interpret the vagaries of such laws.
Specific requirements under disclosure laws
The book addresses disclosure requirements in the countries of Australia, Brazil, China, France, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Romania, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, and the Canadian provinces of Alberta and Ontario. Each chapter addresses specific requirements under each of the disclosure laws. Two authors licensed to practice in the jurisdiction address the same disclosure requirements in a uniform format. Each country chapter is organized to provide a comprehensive discussion of each of these laws and also a practical and easy-to-use reference for counsel to comply with each jurisdiction's laws. Each section addresses the following issues under each jurisdiction's disclosure law:- What is a Franchise?
- Who Must Provide Disclosure?
- Who Must Receive Disclosure?
- When Must Disclosure be Furnished?
- Information to be Included in Disclosure Documents
- Governmental Filings or Approvals
- Other Requirements
- Franchisor-Franchisee Relationship Laws
- Violations of Franchise Sales Laws
KEEP CURRENT WITH SUPPLEMENTS
International Franchise Sales Laws will be updated periodically to incorporate new laws and regulations, and to update the entries as amendments are enacted, administrative practice changes, cases are decided, and interpretation of these laws evolves. Any supplementation issued within three months of purchase will be sent at no additional charge. You may change or cancel any upkeep service by notifying the American Bar Association in writing.
