IX Conclusion

Abstract

This concluding chapter explains that the harmonization of the choice-of-law rules of negotiable instruments is highly desirable. The fact that the book's comparative findings have revealed a significant difference between the substantive laws of various systems underlies the contemporary significance of the choice-of-law question for negotiable instruments law. Harmonization would lead to more justice and fairness between the litigating parties, enhance the value of predictability, and promote international commerce and business. Moreover, in the contemporary world of increasing mobility of goods, international commerce, cross-border dealings, and the Internet, cases involving ‘international negotiable instruments’ law will only grow.
