Gläubiger in der grenzüberschreitenden Umwandlung

'Creditors in Cross-Border Transformations, Protection and Abuse': The German Transformation Act (Umwandlungsgesetz) provides specific protective measures for creditors of companies involved in cross-border transformations. They are primarily protected by the right to seek safeguards before the transaction takes effect. The thesis focuses on that right, examines the risks of its abuse and outlines ways in which companies affected by such abuse can defend themselves.
