Parent company liabilities in emerging markets

In our Inside Emerging Markets video series, our specialists and clients discuss some of the challenges faced when completing complex projects, transactions and disputes.

In our latest video Phillippa Hook, a Senior Associate in our London office is joined by Paul Stothard, Partner, who is based in Dubai. Both Phillippa and Paul have a strong track record of advising clients on parent company labilities and use this in-depth knowledge to explain the importance of how companies can protect themselves from the associated liabilities of subsidiaries. This is particularly important for companies in emerging markets as they are more susceptible to environmental, human rights and health & safety risks.
