Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the legal regulation of international commercial agency agreements in selected jurisdictions. This research is conducted from a comparative perspective, explaining the problems of inter-national commercial agency agreements in civil-law and common law legal traditions. The legal regulation of interna-tional commercial agency agreements is fragmented in many jurisdictions; therefore, the general principles of agency law are applied is this research in order to propose effective solutions. The authors conclude that the lack of interna-tional regulation for commercial agency agreements leads to the application of conflicting national rules that are not sufficient in aligning the interests in all parties of such complex legal relations.
