Abstract:
In this article I argue how the court of first instance in Antwerp erroneously analyzes and applies participation clauses. I try to explain the essential features of such clause and why it is valid under Belgian marital property law. The judgment of the court of first instance has been rejected later on by the Court of Appeal in its famous 2004 judgment.
