Transfer Regulations in Professional Sport - Symposium on 11 June 2004
The Hamburg Forum on International Sports Law held a half-day symposium titled "Transfer Regulations in Professional Sport - Eight Years after Bosman" (title translated). The symposium took place on 11 June 2004 at the Max Planck Institute for Comparative and International Private Law in Hamburg.
The topic was addressed not only from a legal perspective but also from the sporting and economic viewpoint of the concerned sporting clubs and organisations. In so doing the participants were presented with a diverse as possible picture of the current and future structuring of transfer decisions in the field of sports. The speakers were accordingly drawn from both the legal profession as well as the management bodies of affected organisations and clubs.
