Commonwealth Caribbean Business Law

Breaking away from the traditional English approach of treating business law primarily as the law of contract and agency, this book provides a broad overview of the foundation of various legal systems in the Commonwealth Caribbean region and, where appropriate, embraces the jurisprudence of other Commonwealth nations such as the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.This third edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to take into account recent developments in case law and legislation for the region, including the impact of the United States FACTA (Foreign Account tax compliance Act) on the Caribbean financial services industry.
