It is intriguing that the Guidelines were conceived not by Singaporean judges alone, but jointly with a transnational network of bankruptcy judges. This article undertakes the original contribution of examining the Guidelines in light of the overall need for participating jurisdictions to craft a transnational insolvency framework.

While much has been written on how charges are classified as fixed or floating and on the theoretical nature of the floating charge, crystallisation is, by comparison, less developed. This article offers three main contributions. First, it draws a clear distinction between two types of crystallisation: automatic and express. Second, it applies the theoretical literature on floating charges to crystallisation and examines the different meanings crystallisation takes under these theoretical frameworks. Finally, it makes an original argument on the effectiveness of express crystallisation clauses. The claim is that because a crystallised floating charge establishes the same proprietary interest as a fixed charge ab initio, the legal criteria necessary to create a fixed charge should also be necessary for the triggering of an express crystallisation clause to be effective in crystallising a charge.","PeriodicalId":44517,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Law Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"179 - 198"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14735970.2019.1648109","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44540595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Their work provides a jurisdictionally-neutral standard of comparison applied here to the Scottish partnership which, unusually amongst jurisdictions influenced by the common law tradition, possesses separate legal personality. The historical development of Scottish partnerships is explored, from its origins as a Roman-inspired type of societas, a contract centred on the rights and duties of the partners inter se, towards a modern, business able to contract with third parties in its own name. Scots law supports Hansmann and Kraakman's view that attributes of legal personality are secured by organisational law rather than contract law. Disagreeing with them, however, the author uses the Scottish experience to illustrate that lack of perpetual succession is not, as they argue, a ‘mere inconvenience which can easily overcome with contractual workarounds’, but rather an essential requirement of a workable partnership with legal personality.","PeriodicalId":44517,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Law Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"237 - 262"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14735970.2019.1654805","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48296494","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recalibrating the grounding of business organisation's legitimacy requires radical legal reform in order to accommodate the relegation of growth as a lower order objective. However, this article shows that the normative debate in corporate law scholarship is unable to resolve the legitimacy problem of business organisation and ultimately reflects and reproduces the ideal of ‘growth as progress’. The problem is corporate law per se. Thus, the article argues that, even if these normative difficulties could be surpassed, instituting a new legitimacy for business organisation through corporate law reform - the conventional remedy - is, at best, practically impossible or, worse, harmful, because it is bound to follow conformist logic. Consequently, it is preferable to abandon corporate law reform completely and policy should focus instead on enabling the radical organisational practice already occurring in the social margin.","PeriodicalId":44517,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Law Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"291 - 325"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2019-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14735970.2019.1679418","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48205306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If considered material, these transactions will have to be evaluated in advance by the board of directors, the shareholders' meeting, or the stock market. The most important choice to be made by member states in implementing the directive concerns the definition of ‘materiality’. We use hand-collected data based on IAS 24 reporting of related party transactions to estimate the number of German companies affected by quantitative materiality thresholds based on accounting assets, sales, market capitalisation, and other financials. One important recommendation derived from the analysis is to use more than one single quantitative test to define material related party transactions.","PeriodicalId":44517,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Corporate Law Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"263 - 290"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2019-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/14735970.2019.1667744","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"59839504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
