Jonathan Rekker is working on a dissertation with the working title 'De erkenning van equitable interests in het internationaal privaatrecht.'
The PhD research focuses on the recognition of equitable interests under English law in the substantive property, attachment and enforcement laws of the Netherlands, Germany and France. The research focuses on the technique by which foreign property rights are generally incorporated into these legal systems and what difficulties the incorporation of specifically the floating charge, equitable mortgage and trust entail.
