Dutch Civil Code

In setting up the iSHARE Trust Framework, the relevant provisions of the Dutch Civil Code need to be taken into account. This primarily relates to the Accession Agreements and the Terms of Use, which need to be drafted in accordance with Dutch contract law. With the expansion of the iSHARE Trust Framework, other national and international laws may become relevant as well. Any specific (national and international) rules, for example, the transport and logistics sector, such as rules for agreements on the carriage of goods, fall outside the scope of this legal framework. These types of sector specific rules are not relevant for operating and using the iSHARE Trust Framework, although participants may need to adhere to them when contracting services through the Framework.
