Pástor, Martin ; Patěk, Daniel (advisor) ; Zahradníčková, Marie (referee)

The regulation of self-dealing is provided for in section 196a of the Commercial Code. This highly controversial provision causes many interpretation difficulties and strongly influences the legal certainty of entrepreneurs and non- entrepreneurs in the Czech Republic.
