Offshore Company Law Prof. E. Edward Siemens

Offshore Company Law

Professor Siemens’ book will be a handy source of information for those working in both the onshore and offshore world and who need to really understand the differences between jurisdictions competing in the provision of offshore companies. Through his coverage of the specifics in each country, including corporate legislation, issues relevant to stakeholders, tax and related matters, Professor Siemens has provided an up-to-date book of real importance to the users of offshore companies and their advisers.

“The ‘offshore’ world is clearly under attack. (...) The reality, however, is that there are almost infinite compliant uses of both offshore financial centres and offshore companies. (...) The use of ‘offshore’ companies is something that is part of the planning toolbox and for many will continue to be a key component of their corporate and personal investment and business structures. (...) Professor Siemens has succeeded in his efforts to provide a modern approach to a review of offshore company law”.

Le nouvel ordre mondial

Ressource stratégique suprême, le pétrole le restera encore très longtemps, car, contrairement aux analyses simplistes sur la fin du pétrole, la planète regorge de réserves massives économiquement exploitables.  Mais ces réserves d’un type nouveau se trouvent sur d’autres continents. De nouvelles puissances pétrolières vont ainsi émerger grâce à des technologies révolutionnaires. 
Le marché du pétrole est en transition. La volatilité extrême des prix en est un symptôme. La montée en flèche des prix en 2007-2008 était totalement indépendante de l’offre et de la demande, notamment de la fameuse demande chinoise. Elle s’explique notamment par la non-transparence des réserves des principaux producteurs et par l’incapacité de l’OPEP à réguler le marché.

Paul Michael Wihbey, Président de GWEST, Global Water & Energy Strategy Team, à Washington, est le conseiller stratégique de plusieurs gouvernements et entreprises en Amérique du nord et en Afrique dans le domaine de l’énergie.

The Rise of the New Oil Order

Contrary to all the other books which predict “the end of oil”, “peak oil”, “the last drop”, The Rise of the New Oil Order demonstrates that there are vast reserves of oil to meet an increasing demand. Oil will remain the world’s primary strategic resource and invaluable commodity. But oil will come from different sources (mainly North America surprisingly), will be of a different kind (unconventional), will be produced with different technologies, by different types of companies. In this new context, the book examines the strategies of the traditional players (United States, Russia, Japan, European Union, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, Mexico) and of the new ones (Alberta, Saskatchewan, China, India, Brazil, Kazakhstan, Nigeria and West Africa)?
