This is the first book in English to provide a detailed guide to the ways into and around the Brazilian economy. Thirty seven leading Brazilian practitioners describe and interpret laws and regulations governing business set-up procedures, transactions, contracts, financing, taxation, securities, intellectual property, real estate, dispute resolution, environmental protection, labor, insolvency, competition, trade remedies, anti-corruption, private funds and insurance. They explore every issue likely to be important to investors, including the following:
