S.L. Budylin, Yu.L. Ivanets Lifting the Veils. The Doctrine of Piercing the Corporate Veil in Foreign Countries and in the Russian Federation
The doctrine of piercing the corporate veil (lifting the corporate veil) is well known in the Anglo-Saxon family of law. In the countries of Romano-Germanic law, lifting the doctrine of piercing the corporate veil is not generally regarded as a separate judicial doctrine, nevertheless in some cases piercing the corporate veil is applied by virtue of norms on prohibition of abuse of rights. In the Russian Federation, the Presidium of the Supreme Commercial Court for the first time referred to this doctrine in 2012 in its decision on the case of Parex bank. The doctrine will presumably take place in the practice of Russian commercial courts, but before that the Supreme Commercial Court will need to give far clearer explanations.
Keywords: corporate veil, limited liability
