Book Synopsis Shareholders' Rights and Obligations by : Marcel Willems
Download or read book Shareholders' Rights and Obligations written by Marcel Willems and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 779 pages. 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.
Book Synopsis The Shareholder Value Myth by : Lynn Stout
Download or read book The Shareholder Value Myth written by Lynn Stout and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2012-05-07 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth look at the trouble with shareholder value thinking and at better options for models of corporate purpose. Executives, investors, and the business press routinely chant the mantra that corporations are required to “maximize shareholder value.” In this pathbreaking book, renowned corporate expert Lynn Stout debunks the myth that corporate law mandates shareholder primacy. Stout shows how shareholder value thinking endangers not only investors but the rest of us as well, leading managers to focus myopically on short-term earnings; discouraging investment and innovation; harming employees, customers, and communities; and causing companies to indulge in reckless, sociopathic, and irresponsible behaviors. And she looks at new models of corporate purpose that better serve the needs of investors, corporations, and society. “A must-read for managers, directors, and policymakers interested in getting America back in the business of creating real value for the long term.” —Constance E. Bagley, professor, Yale School of Management; president, Academy of Legal Studies in Business; and author of Managers and the Legal Environment and Winning Legally “A compelling call for radically changing the way business is done... The Shareholder Value Myth powerfully demonstrates both the dangers of the shareholder value rule and the falseness of its alleged legal necessity.” —Joel Bakan, professor, The University of British Columbia, and author of the book and film The Corporation “Lynn Stout has a keen mind, a sharp pen, and an unbending sense of fearlessness. Her book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the root causes of the current financial calamity.” —Jack Willoughby, senior editor, Barron’s “Lynn Stout offers a new vision of good corporate governance that serves investors, firms, and the American economy.” —Judy Samuelson, executive director, Business and Society Program, The Aspen Institute

Book Synopsis Oranburg's Corporate Law Compendium by : Seth C. Oranburg
Download or read book Oranburg's Corporate Law Compendium written by Seth C. Oranburg and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019 with total page 208 pages. 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!

Book Synopsis Shareholder Voting Rights and Practices in Europe and the United States by : Theodor Baums
Download or read book Shareholder Voting Rights and Practices in Europe and the United States written by Theodor Baums and published by Springer. This book was released on 1999-12-13 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increasing interest of foreign investors, particularly institutional investors, in European companies, there is a growing need for information on the different regimes affecting the legal status of shareholders. Investors need to be aware of the rights and privileges of shareholders in various jurisdictions in order to participate effectively in companies' voting and decision-making processes. This book provides detailed analysis of the rules and practices in sixteen European jurisdictions and the United States, covering issues such as convening the general meeting, depositing and blocking of shares, participation rights, setting of the agenda, voting rights and proxy rules. The authors also aim to make companies aware of practices which may hamper effective shareholder participation and, in comparing the different rules and practices, to identify areas where further harmonisation might be undertaken within the European Community framework. The papers collected here are the result of a conference organised by Professor Theodor Baums, of the University of Osnabrück and Professor Eddy Wymeersch, of the University of Ghent.
