Investing in the UK in uncertain times - political change and the right to property
Wednesday, 3 June
14:00 - 15:30 (Registration from 13:30)
Political tensions and the prospect of political change in the UK raise risks and opportunities for multinational actors including those with actual or potential investments in the UK. On the left and the right politicians and, increasingly, political parties are willing to contemplate significant interference with private assets for asserted public interest reasons; while calls for the UK to reconsider its relationship with the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) continue. This session will consider the extent to which corporate property and commercial interests are protected in English public and human rights law in an environment of political turbulence, and the extent to which those protections are rooted in English common law, beyond the ECHR.
Hosted by Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer and 11KBW.
