SEVIC: Beyond Cross-Border MergersMathias M. SiemsDurham University - Durham Law School; University of Cambridge - Centre for Business Research European Business Organization Law Review (EBOR), Vol. 8, No. 2, pp. 307-316, 2007 Abstract: In SEVIC, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) held that the refusal of a national commercial court to register a cross-border merger may constitute a violation of the freedom of establishment. In the future, this decision will be superseded by the new Cross-Border Merger Directive. Thus, the importance of the SEVIC decision could be doubted. This note, however, shows that SEVIC has significance beyond cross-border mergers, namely with respect to seat transfers, cross-border divisions and cross-border takeovers.
