Law/Patents - Law: Taxation & Customs / Legal commentary on Double Taxation Conventions
German term or phrase: WÜRV
This is part of a legal commentary on the difficulty with translating 'Nutzungsberechtigter' or 'wirtschaftlicher Eigentuemer' as 'beneficial owner'. The WUERV (W U umlaut R V) is quoted as an authoritative source, e.g.:

Ueber die Auffassungen der (englischsprachigen) Literatur zum Begriff 'beneficial owner' im Rahmen des MA und ueber dieses hinaus unterrichtet umfassend X. Mit Recht kritisiert Y, dass diese Literatur durchweg die Regeln des WUERV (W U umlaut R V) nicht genuegend beachte.

Please help ASAP, as this is an urgent request! :)
