The International Comparative Legal Guide to: Enforcement of Foreign Judgment...Matheson Law Firm

A defendant can challenge enforcement on grounds of fraud, public policy violations, or the foreign court lacking jurisdiction. The procedures involve filing affidavits and motions with the High Court. Special enforcement regimes also exist for judgments from EU/EFTA countries

This document summarizes cartel enforcement in the United States. It discusses that the US remains uniquely aggressive in prosecuting cartels criminally through imprisonment, fines, and private damages suits. The DOJ plays the primary role in detecting cartels and establishing their existence in court, while private parties can establish the full scope of injury. Individuals can face up to 10 years in prison and $1m fines, while corporations face fines of $100m or double damages. Recent years have seen record fines collected and increased international cooperation in prosecutions. Most enforcement still targets price-fixing in industries like auto parts, air transportation, and chemicals.

China's population growth is driven by past growth trends rather than current fertility rates, which have fallen below replacement level. While population is still expected to rise due to the large number of young people, fertility rates may increase slightly as China modernizes. The government faces balancing controlling population while allowing for more social freedom. Economic development is also linked to lower fertility rates in urban areas. Overall, China's future population and economic trends will depend on how these counteracting factors balance out.

The International Comparative Legal Guide to Insurance & Reinsurance 2017_6th...Matheson Law Firm
This document summarizes the implications of Brexit for the UK insurance industry. It notes that UK insurers currently rely on EU "passporting" rights to operate across the single market, but these rights will likely be lost after Brexit.

Ireland is presented as an attractive option for UK insurers due to its common law system, educated workforce, low corporate tax rate, and proximity and cultural ties to the UK. The document outlines some of Ireland's advantages and why it could be a good jurisdiction for UK insurers to base future EU operations.
