This book provides a concise analytical overview of corporate law, focusing on three fundamental agency problems: (1) the opportunism of managers towards shareholders; (2) the opportunism of controlling shareholders towards minority shareholders; and (3) the opportunism of shareholders as a group towards other corporate constituencies, such as creditors and employees. Each jurisdiction must tackle these issues within the context of a corporation's internal dynamics and its interactions with various markets. The authors assert that corporate forms are fundamentally similar, with jurisdictions often choosing from a limited set of legal strategies to address these agency issues, although not always the same strategy.The book details how principal European jurisdictions, Japan, and the United States sometimes adopt identical legal strategies for specific corporate law problems while also making divergent choices. It begins with an overview of agency issues and legal strategies, then explores the governance structure of corporations, including the powers of boards of directors and shareholder meetings. It also covers creditor protection, related-party transactions, and key corporate actions like mergers and charter amendments. The conclusion examines friendly acquisitions, hostile takeovers, and capital market regulation. This work is valuable for scholars and students of corporate and comparative law, as well as those interested.

Condition: very good. Leiden : Martinus Nijhoff, c2005. Hardcover. viii,196 pp. English text. - The need for uniform conflict of laws rules that comport with the reality of how securities are held and transferred today (i.e., by electronic book- entry debits and credits to securities accounts of primarily dematerialised or immobilised securities) has become critical. The last several decades have seen a dramatic increase in the value, number and speed of cross- border securities transactions, facilitated by advances in technology. Legal uncertainty as to the law governing the perfection, priority and other effects of transfers imposes significant friction costs on even routine transactions and operates as an important constraint on desirable reductions in credit and liquidity exposures. Increased exposure to unsecured credit risk amplifies systemic risk and the potential proliferation of the number of bankruptcies. Not surprisingly, the international legal and financial community has been emphasising, for more than a decade, the need for uniform conflict of laws rules applicable to transactions involving securities held with intermediaries.To address the current uncertainties, the 19th Diplomatic Session of the Hague Conference on Private International Law unanimously adopted the Convention on the Law Applicable to Certain Rights in Respect of Securities held with an Intermediary (the Hague Securities Convention). The Convention reflects a pragmatic approach, based on real world needs, aimed at achieving ex ante certainty and predictability as to the law governing issues that are of crucial practical importance for holding and transfer of securities held with an intermediary, in particular their effects against the intermediary and third parties. The present volume contains the Explanatory Report of the Convention. It was prepared by leading experts in the field: Professor Roy GOODE (United Kingdom), Professor Hideki KANDA (Japan), Professor Karl KREUZER (Germany), with the assistance of Dr Christophe BERNASCONI (Permanent Bureau). This Report provides the most authoritative and comprehensive explanations of the Convention. It is divided into two parts: A General Introduction, which offers a helpful overview of the Convention and succinctly describes its key features, and a full commentary on each article of the Convention. Numerous practical examples effectively illustrate the nature and content of the commentaries. Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9789004148369. Keywords : RECHT, *2006-100 aa ipr.

Paperback. Condition: New. This is the long-awaited third edition of this highly regarded comparative overview of corporate law. This edition has been comprehensively revised and updated to reflect the profound changes in corporate law and governance practices that have taken place since the previous edition. These include numerous regulatory changes following the financial crisis of 2007-09 and the changing landscape of governance, especially in the US, with the ever more central role of institutional investors as (active) owners of corporations. The geographic scope of the coverage has been broadened to include an important emerging economy, Brazil. In addition, the book now incorporates analysis of the burgeoning use of corporate law to protect the interests of "external constituencies" without any contractual relationship to a company, in an attempt to tackle broader social and economic problems. The authors start from the premise that corporations (or companies) in all jurisdictions share the same key legal attributes: legal personality, limited liability, delegated management, transferable shares, and investor ownership. Businesses using the corporate form give rise to three basic types of agency problems: those between managers and shareholders as a class; controlling shareholders and minority shareholders; and shareholders as a class and other corporate constituencies, such as corporate creditors and employees. After identifying the common set of legal strategies used to address these agency problems and discussing their interaction with enforcement institutions, The Anatomy of Corporate Law illustrates how a number of core jurisdictions around the world deploy such strategies. In so doing, the book highlights the many commonalities across jurisdictions and reflects on the reasons why they may differ on specific issues. The analysis covers the basic governance structure of the corporation, including the powers of the board of directors and the shareholder meeting, both when management and when a dominant shareholder is in control. It then analyses the role of corporate law in shaping labor relationships, protection of external stakeholders, relationships with creditors, related-party transactions, fundamental corporate actions such as mergers and charter amendments, takeovers, and the regulation of capital markets. The Anatomy of Corporate Law has established itself as the leading book in the field of comparative corporate law. Across the world, students and scholars at various stages in their careers, from undergraduate law students to well-established authorities in the field, routinely consult this book as a starting point for their inquiries.
