"Over 70% of cases in London's Commercial Court involve at least one foreign party. The availability of pre-judgment freezing injunctions is one the key attractions for foreign litigants in high-value, cross-border cases. This draconian form of relief, famously described as one of the nuclear weapons in the courts' armoury, is frequently invoked as a tactictal tool to put pressure on defendants. By challenging the long-established view that freezing injunctions operate in personam, the author demonstrates that their current scope does not strike a fair balance between the interests of the parties and creates a real risk of encroachment upon the jurisdiction of foreign courts. The requirements for obtaining a freezing injunction are examined in both domestic and international cases, starting with their historical foundations. The book identifies serious concerns about the claimant-friendly approach of the English courts with an emphasis on the application of private international law rules. The author proposes a range of reforms with the aim of strengthening the equality of the parties and eliminating interference with the sovereignty of foreign states"--

This book compares the law on provisional measures of common law and civil law countries, the goal being to identify and compare their main advantages and disadvantages. The guiding concept is a well-known statement by the Justices of the US Supreme Court expressed in the famous Grupo Mexicano case, according to which the “age of slow-moving capital and comparatively immobile wealth” has now passed, and the 21st century requires a fresh look at the law of provisional measures. In the quest to find a model for interim relief, the Mareva Injunction, subsequently renamed the ‘Freezing Order’ in the English Civil Procedural Rules, is used as the benchmark to which each of the targeted systems discussed here is compared. This is because international scholarship, as well as e.g. the US Supreme Court, generally consider the Mareva Injunction to be the most effective and farthest-reaching provisional remedy. The analysis suggests that the Mareva Injunction / Freezing Order represents the type of relief that will most likely continue to dominate as the most efficient and farthest-reaching interim measure in the years to come.

The extent of available pre-judgment asset preservation relief is widely regarded as a unique characteristic of English law and one of the key factors attracting international commercial litigation to the English courts. By taking a novel view of the theoretical foundations of a freezing injunction, this book challenges the long-established view that such an injunction is an in personam form of relief whose sole purpose is to prevent unscrupulous defendants from making themselves judgment-proof. Dr Šaranović combines historical and comparative perspectives to identify several theoretical flaws in the court's jurisdiction to grant this popular form of interim relief. The book demonstrates that the current application of private international law rules in this field leads to inequality among litigants and illegitimate encroachment upon the sovereignty of foreign states. It proposes a range of possible solutions to alleviate concerns about the scope of freezing injunctions both in the domestic and international arena.
