"The secrecy of a company does not confer – and cannot confer – absolute protection on its holder in evidentiary terms."
Techniques to balance secrecy and proof
The teacher has been working on the subject. In recent column article Constitution, Company and MarketIt analyses techniques such as:
- granularised procedural secrecy;
- versions of the tarred documents;
- confidentiality clubs;
- date rooms.
All seek to reconcile the protection of secrecy with access to proof, especially in the digital economy, in which many illicits are practiced by opaque algorithms.
Highlight Phrase:
"It is necessary to find a balance between the protection of the company's secret and the other interests that are projected on judicial and arbitral proceedings."
Participation reinforces Ana Frazon's contribution to the debate on business law, process and competition.
