Abstract
Lately, the value of many products on foreign financial markets has dropped considerably. As a result, affected investors regularly strive to hold the issuers of these products liable before domestic courts. In the following, the relevant European rules of international civil procedural law and the related case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union will be examined. Thereafter, a fresh methodological approach to the questions at hand will be presented.
