Every month, “Hot Issues” focuses on 10 new forthcoming legislative or policy issues that will impact business from around our global network of offices in Latin America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Middle East, Africa and North America. The public policy dynamics in each country, let alone a particular region can be very different, demonstrated by the different experts we utilize in the countries where we operate. Conversely, there are similarities and you can see this in some of the issues we have picked out. "Hot Issues" are designed to give you a flavor of our global perspective and should any of the items raise particular interest with you please contact the designated person listed with that issue.
