Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Flash Eurobarometer survey explores the opinions of companies about the independence of the judiciary across the 27 EU Member States. This survey was commissioned by the European Commission's Directorate-General for Justice and Consumers and follows previous surveys on this topic conducted yearly since 2016. The results of these surveys feed into the EU Justice Scoreboard, which provides data on the efficiency, quality, and independence of national justice systems - essential parameters of effective justice systems. Effective justice systems are vital for implementing EU law and upholding the rule of law and the values upon which the EU is founded. Effective justice systems are also essential for mutual trust, the investment climate and the sustainability of long-term growth. This Flash Eurobarometer survey explores: How companies perceive the independence of courts and judges in their country ; The reasons for these perceptions, both positive and negative ; Whether companies have confidence in the protection of their investments by law and courts ; The reasons for concerns about the effectiveness of this protection.
