Kollektiver Rechtsschutz für kleine und mittlere Unternehmen?

'Collective Redress Mechanisms for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises? Analysis of Needs and Proposal for Legislative Action': Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are regularly at a disadvantage in litigation against larger companies and therefore often refrain from enforcing their claims - even when numerous SMEs are equally affected by similar legal disputes. This monograph examines whether the current collective redress framework, which is predominantly consumer-focused, should be extended to include instruments tailored to SMEs and sets out a corresponding legislative proposal.
