Public benefit status and CMD systems for associations and non-profit organizations in the EU
This study, which was commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the JURI Committee, provides a comparative analysis of the laws on public benefit status found in the Member States of the EU from the perspective of associations and discusses the state of the art of EU law in this field. The study also deals with the legal regulation of cross-border conversion, merger and division of associations, focusing on some problematic aspects that also concern associations that hold the public benefit status. Conclusions focus on the need for the introduction of an EU statute that guarantees public benefit organizations effective freedom of establishment within the Union.
