Den 1 oktober 2009 trädde en de nya Takeover-reglerna i kraft. Den största nyheten i de nya reglerna var den kraftigt minskade möjligheten att erbjuda röststarka aktier ett högre pris än röstsvaga aktier i ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande. Detta är en skärpning av den aktiemarknadsrättsliga likhetsprincipen och avsikten var att tillförsäkra minoritetsägare en större del av uppköpspremien.

Uppsatsens syfte har varit att beskriva den svenska sexmånadersregeln i IL 3 kap. 9 § första stycket, och utreda om den i en situation där lön utbetalas retroaktivt kan verka diskriminerande och därmed strida mot EU-rätten. Som obegränsat skattskyldig i Sverige är man enligt bosättningsprincipen skattskyldig för alla sina inkomster här, även sådana inkomster som kommer från utlandet. SexmånadersreThis thesis aims to describe the Swedish six months rule and analyse whether the provision in a situation where compensation is given retroactively should be viewed as discriminating and incompatible with EU law. An individual unlimited liable to tax in Sweden is tax liable on his worldwide income. The six months rule works as an exception, stating that anyone that is unlimited liable to tax in Sw
