Abstract:

STEP Frankfurt is very pleased to be hosting this year’s STEP European Cross Border Conference. This half day conference on 4 May 2011 is part of the commitment of STEP worldwide to bring together practitioners both from the common law world and from continental Europe to discuss current practical legal and tax issues. The conference will focus on current EU developments, in particular the status of the succession directive (Rome IV), the perception of continental European marriage contracts (pre-nuptial agreements) by other jurisdictions and an introduction to the concept of trusts and trust taxation in Germany. The programme will be completed by a panel session on legal and tax structures which are of interest to German residents with cross-border ties.

The format of this conference will differ from any previous conference of STEP Frankfurt. This half day programme on 4 May 2011 opens with a buffet lunch giving plenty of networking opportunities. During the conference programme with international speakers we will provide simultaneous translation (English to German) allowing everyone to exchange ideas and thoughts. In the evening, all delegates are welcome to attend a dinner in the Rheingau. On 5 May 2011, the annual STEP Frankfurt conference is to follow focusing on domestic German topics. Delegates attending both conference days will get a discount on the second day.
