Now we Brits are hardly ones to throw stones — even we from the former colonies of the antipodes — but [[US attorney]]s tend to suppose everyone knows about their jurisdiction, cares about it, is in awe of it, and will have no objection to submitting to it. Every now and then you come across a [[counterparty]] in some far-flung backwater (continental {{tag|Europe}}, for example) who expresses bafflement or even affrontery at the thought of subjugating itself to the law of the [[:Category:US Securities Regulation|Americans]]. That this might happen takes some [[U.S. Attorney|Americans]] by surprise. Then again, the fact it takes some [[U.S. Attorney|Americans]] by surprise, takes everyone ''else'' by surprise. It is a fruitless task trying to get the bottom of who is most justifiably surprised but, for the record, it’s us. | Now we Brits are hardly ones to throw stones — even we from the former colonies of the antipodes — but [[US attorney]]s tend to suppose everyone knows about their jurisdiction, cares about it, is in awe of it, and will have no objection to submitting to it.
