20 years of intercantonal notarial cooperation
For the occasion of its 20th anniversary, the swisNot notary network is publishing articles in a main field of notaries and public officials, namely matrimonial property regimes. Professor Andrea Bonomi is the scientific editor and we thank him warmly for his excellent collaboration. These “Mélanges” contain, on the one hand, academic contributions relating to the European Regulation on Matrimonial Property Regimes, presented in the framework of the 3rd International Property Law Day on 16 September 2021, co-organised by the Centre for Comparative, European and International Law (CDCEI) of the University of Lausanne and swisNot. On the other hand, it contains several texts from practitioners which provide useful additions concerning matrimonial property regimes in Spain and Germany, as well as leads on the protection of the family business by marriage contract in the participation in acquired property regime, judicial considerations relating to matrimonial property regimes and highlighting of differences in the tax treatment of donations and successions.
