This is our latest country business guide - a survey of the American market for Nordic companies.
"Business Guide USA" was written by Finn Martensen, LL.M. and Ph.D., Sacramento, CA, and Supreme Court Attorney, Copenhagen, Denmark, who is solely responsible for its content. A previous edition was written in Danish and intended for Danish customers. This edition has been revised for customers in all of the Nordic countries. The guide is a practical resource for companies with interests in the US or companies that want to enter the important US market.
Managers and advisers of Nordic companies who need information on US legal matters will find the guide useful. It includes comparisons between US and Nordic legislation, highlighting some of the differences to make it easier to understand the US legal system. It is written in a straightforward style that seeks to avoid unnecessarily complex legal terminology.
The guide does not cover all aspects of US law. The author has selected the areas that, in his experience, are of most interest to companies in the Nordic region. These areas are discussed in general terms, and in most cases, it is advisable for companies to seek professional assistance in handling specific legal matters in the US.
