Class Actions Worldview Compendium

Although class actions have been common in the United States for decades, adoption across the rest of the world has been more limited. The global landscape remains in flux, however, as more countries have renewed momentum to enact class actions or class action-like procedures.

Jones Day has one of the largest and most successful groups of defense-side class action practitioners in the world. Building on the experience of litigators in 40 offices on five continents, this compendium synthesizes Jones Day's five-part series and serves as an essential resource for navigating the complexities of global class actions. As more countries move towards expanding collective litigation frameworks, companies should be prepared to address these emerging risks proactively.
