This Is The Longawaited Second Edition Of This Highly Regarded Comparative Overview Of Corporate Law. This Edition Has Been Comprehensively Updated To Reflect Profound Changes In Corporate Law. It Now Includes Consideration Of Additional Matters Such As The Highly Topical Issue Of Enforcement In Corporate Law, And Explores The Continued Convergence Of Corporate Law Across Jurisdictions.The Authors Start From The Premise That Corporate (Or Company) Law Across Jurisdictions Addresses The Same Three Basic Agency Problems: (1) The Opportunism Of Managers Visvis Shareholders; (2) The Opportunism Of Controlling Shareholders Visvis Minority Shareholders; And (3) The Opportunism Of Shareholders As A Class Visvis Other Corporate Constituencies, Such As Corporate Creditors And Employees. Every Jurisdiction Must Address These Problems In A Variety Of Contexts, Framed By The Corporation'S Internal Dynamics And Its Interactions With The Product, Labor, Capital, And Takeover Markets. The Authors' Central Claim, However, Is That Corporate (Or Company) Forms Are Fundamentally Similar And That, To A Surprising Degree, Jurisdictions Pick From Among The Same Handful Of Legal Strategies To Address The Three Basic Agency Issues.This Book Explains In Detail How And Why The Principal European Jurisdictions, Japan, And The United States Sometimes Select Identical Legal Strategies To Address A Given Corporate Law Problem, And Sometimes Make Divergent Choices. After An Introductory Discussion Of Agency Issues And Legal Strategies, The Book Addresses The Basic Governance Structure Of The Corporation, Including The Powers Of The Board Of Directors And The Shareholders Meeting. It Proceeds To Creditor Protection Measures, Relatedparty Transactions, And Fundamental Corporate Actions Such As Mergers And Charter Amendments. Finally, It Concludes With An Examination Of Friendly Acquisitions, Hostiletakeovers, And The Regulation Of The Capital Markets.
