Law of International Business in Australasia By Robin Burnett and Vivienne Bath

This book is a successor to Robin Burnett’s Law of International Business Transactions. It provides an up-to-date analysis of the legal environment for international trade and covers:

• the changes made to payment and letters of credit by reason of the adoption of the UCP 600, which became effective in 2007, and other means of payment which are currently used;
• the provisions and possible adoption of the UNCITRAL Draft Convention on the Carriage of Goods Wholly or Partly by Sea;
• recent developments in the law relating to international sale of goods;
• the question of international arbitration and other means of dispute resolution; and
• the strategies and issues of international operations while incorporating and building on the comprehensive information and material in the previous book.

It will assist practitioners and students in their understanding of the legal and practical aspects of international and overseas trade and operations.
