Description
Summary:A Mareva injunction which was, in 1999, renamed as a freezing order, is a type of interlocutory injunction. It was created in 1975 with the purpose of restraining a debtor from dissipating his assets until a judgment is made against him. Since then, Mareva injunction has been progressively developing and adopted to differing degrees by other jurisdictions. This thesis will focus on the development of the Mareva injunction and the main impacts that the development has caused on the scope and fundamental acceptance of this injunction in England and Wales. In comparison, its acceptance and practice in Malaysia, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand, will be discuss in order to identify similarities and differences, whereby the main difference can be seen in the application of the worldwide Mareva injunction.
