Reopening liquidation after turboliquidation

15 August 2023|

If the business activities of a legal entity are discontinued, it must be considered how the legal entity will be wound up. If there are no more assets at all, a turboliquidation can take place. This is dissolution without the appointment of a liquidator. The legal entity then ceases to exist immediately. A resolution for dissolution is passed and the board notifies the Commercial Register of the end of the legal entity's existence.

Covenant on ancillary activities; greater clarity desired

18 July 2023|

Since August 1 of this year, the law (Section 7:653a of the Civil Code) has provided that the employment contract may no longer contain a prohibition on ancillary activities ("ancillary activities clause") unless there is an "objective reason for doing so. This means work in addition to the current position with the employer. This may also include work that the employee performs independently.
