Complications to check

Issues to assess when more than one country is involved. They are prompts, not conclusions about any country's law.

  • Court vs arbitration forumAgreement uses arbitration while assets and key witnesses are in different countries
  • Recognition of judgmentsA party wins abroad but needs lawful local recognition and enforcement
  • Emergency asset preservationA respondent may move assets before final proceedings conclude
  • Foreign investment controlsA proposed ownership change may require sector or national security clearance
  • Audit licensing & independenceAudit work requires jurisdiction-specific licensing and independence checks
