NEW PRODUCTS

 

Kluwer Borderwatch

Kluwer Law International and LawInContext have partnered to produce Kluwer Borderwatch, an online resource for companies seeking proactive enforcement of their intellectual property. Kluwer Borderwatch simplifies multi-country protection and enforcement issues by providing online country-by-country information on how to effectively use customs procedures and controls to help protect a company’s intellectual property.

 

All content has been created by Baker & McKenzie with contributions from lawyers active in the intellectual property arena. Email notifications are sent out informing users of content updates and key developments.

 

For more information go to: www.kluwerborderwatch.com or contact your Account Representative.

 

CCH World Wide Tax Rates & Answers now covers Russia and Europe in one module

Based upon customer demand, the European Union + Switzerland module (World Wide Tax Rates & Answers: Europe) has been combined with the Central/Eastern Europe module. This new module, World Wide Tax Rates & Answers: Europe Complete, enables quick multijurisdictional comparisons across all of Europe at once.

 

This new module is a CCH exclusive, as no other provider offers these tax rates updated in real-time, along with forms and instructions translated into English.

For details, contact your Account Representative.

 

 

PRODUCT NEWS

SEC Staff Comment Letters now available as a separate subscription

As of July 1, 2008, SEC Staff Comment Letters will no longer be part of individual subscriptions to the CCH Federal Securities Law Reporter. The comment letters were included with the reporter on an introductory basis, but now must be purchased separately. SEC Comment Letters are still part of the CCH Federal Securities Regulation Integrated Library at no charge.

 

Exchange Archives

When planning for a compliance examination, responding to exam findings, or preparing for arbitration or other litigation, a current copy of the rules is not enough. The Rule Archives from Wolters Kluwer Financial Services were created to help bridge that gap.

Tracking online usage with LookUp Precision

Because Wolters Kluwer Law & Business and Advanced Productivity Software (APS) have partnered to optimize APS’s LookUp Precision® tool, you can now track online usage of the CCH Internet Research NetWork, Kluwer Law International’s KluwerArbitration.com, KluwerManualIP.com and KluwerCompetitionLaw.com.

 

LookUp Precision features password management that simplifies log-in, and client matter prompts allow specific research projects to be associated with cost codes. Usage data can then be exported to billing systems to aid in cost recovery.

 

You’ll find more information about LookUp Precision at http://www.aps-soft.com
