Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shareholders are important stakeholders of companies. In recent times the position of shareholders has become more and more scrutinized, partly as a result of activist measures they have taken, sometimes resulting in the breaking up of large corporations. At the other hand of the spectrum we see minority shareholders being marginalised and even forced to transfer their shares.Questions that arise in these and similar situations are, amongst others: how can the management board of the company block what it deems destructive action by shareholders, but also: what can shareholders do in the event that the value of their shares decreases as a result of actions by management or third parties? As a result there are many relationships concerning companies in which shareholders play a role. The role of a shareholder may depend on the type of company, but also on the type of shareholder (activist vs. long term investor), the type of shares, and the articles of incorporation and shareholders agreements.This practical handbook provides an overview of these and other relevant legal issues concerning shareholders in some 25 of the most important business nations around the globe. It provides guidance to shareholders, directors, supervisory directors, general counsel and their attorneys to promote a better understanding of the rights, but also the obligations, of shareholders. Besides, this guide provides all those concerned with practical information on the relevant dispute resolution systems.

By providing a systematic and thorough framework for analysis, this Commentary evaluates the purpose and aims of SRD II and further enriches the debate on the usefulness of the EU’s drive to encourage long-term shareholder engagement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legal regulation of company shares is a fundamental building block in a capitalist society. This insightful book provides an historical analysis of the phenomenon, investigating underlying policy issues and considering relevant aspects of current law to explore possible future trends. David Milman examines the phenomenon of the company share in a holistic way, tracing the origins of the share and exploring the diversity present within the family of shares. Using a comparative approach, key chapters consider the circumstances under which shares are acquired, the property law perspective relevant to shares and the rights and obligations of those who hold shares. The book concludes with speculation on how the share might evolve in the future in light of technological change and the development of other capital raising investments. This accessible book will provide valuable insight to scholars researching corporate law. It will also be beneficial for policymakers and practitioners wishing to understand more about the history of the company share, and how this may impact its future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often assumed that shareholders have rights, not duties. In recent years, however, this assumption has come under intense scrutiny in all aspects of company law and capital market law -legislation, the courts, soft law, and scholarship - and, in Europe especially, major changes are under way across a diverse spectrum all the way from revised contractual arrangements to mandatory statutory provisions. Such a shift has important implications for the fundamentals of European company law, and there is a need to examine shareholders' duties and to consider where this trend is taking shareholders and their stance in law. This focused collection of essays by twenty notable scholars addresses this complex subject from a highly informative and useful variety of perspectives. Examining shareholders' duties along three axes - types of investee companies, types of shareholders, and types of business situations - the essays deal with such topics and issues as the following: - shareholders' duties as reflections of the interests they are intended to safeguard; - shareholders' duties to society; - shareholders' disclosure obligations; - duties of parent companies; - institutional investor's fiduciary duty; - how regulatory duties constrain value-reducing forms of opportunism; - the state's continuing duties in the transformation of state-owned companies; - significant shareholders' duties in transactions with the company; and - powerful shareholders' duty not to abuse right. Examining the implications of this shift in discourse - how shareholders' duties are coming to the fore under the impetus of legislation, legal doctrine, case law, and enforcement strategies - as well as its ideological underpinnings, this book offers a comprehensive and in-depth consideration of this rapidly developing field. It will prove of inestimable value not only to policymakers and academics, but also to investors and practitioners committed to creating conditions favourable to sustainable economic growth and responsible business behaviour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oranburg's Corporate Law Compendium: Stockholder Rights helps students learn the doctrine and practice of stockholder rights and their effectuation. It is designed to accompany graduate-level coursework in corporate law. This compendium has three modules corresponding with the primary stockholder rights: voting rights, suing management, and selling shares. Module One deals with corporate governance as it relates to stockholder voting rights. This includes the basics of stockholder voting, stockholder voting rights in fundamental transactions, stockholder rights to initiate corporate action, board responses to stockholder initiatives, stockholder information rights, and public stockholder activism. Module Two deals with the fiduciary duties that directors and officers owe to stockholders and stockholders' rights to sue to when these duties are breached. This includes director's substantive duties of care, oversight, and loyalty, and the procedural effectuation of those duties through stockholder direct and derivative litigation. These triumvirate duties make directors liable to the corporation or its stockholders when the board does not act with sufficient process, where it fail to set up compliance monitoring system, or where directors have a conflict of interest. While director liability is limited by the business judgment rule, exculpation, indemnification, and insurance, stockholders can sue or cause the corporation to sue directors for violation of these duties in direct or derivative actions.Module three deals with stock markets and the rights of stockholder to sell their shares. This includes a basic overview of securities regulations, securities markets, securities fraud, and insider trading. While this module is mainly about public stock markets, it also alludes to private stock transaction.This compendium assumes that students have developed a basic working knowledge of corporations through other coursework, such as the classes I teach on Corporations & Society and Corporations & Entrepreneurship. I recommend learning those basics before attempting to tackle the information in this class. Additionally, I recommend that students who want to round out their understanding of business associations should also learn about Agency & Authority and Piercing the Corporate Veil, which I also teach in other courses.Students who have masted the basics of corporations and understand stockholder rights as covered in this course will be prepared for advanced coursework in securities regulation, venture capital financial, mergers & acquisitions, corporate governance, business planning, and other related topics.I hope that this compendium helps you enjoy learning about corporate law!

This handbook provides a general examination of conceptual questions of Shareholders ́ Agreements and provides an analysis of the regulation of Shareholders ́ Agreements in European and international law and of the national law of more than 20 jurisdictions. Readers will get a general understanding of the theoretical and practical problems involved with Shareholders ́ Agreements and detailed information on the regulation of Shareholders ́ Agreements in several jurisdictions and the applicable law in the case of transnational corporations and cross-border transactions.
