Title Corporate Split-off - Comparison of the U.S. and German models
Summary In this paper I will show that not only marriages but also divorces do make sense in the corporate leve1, and that the form the divorce is carried out might strongly affect the outcome. Hence, I will clarify the meaning, mechanics, practical use, legal implications and effects of the split-off to give a complex picture of the transaction. I will base my research on the US jurisdiction, given that there the divestiture can be examined in its most sophisticated way and highest variety. Then I will provide for the recent developments in EC law illustrating them with one particular jurisdiction of the region, namely the German one, since there divestitures already became a popular way of restructuring.
