Harmonising Shareholder Protection Laws for Related Party Transactions
Abstract 701 Related party transactions have gained significant importance in Europe as a result of the reformed Shareholders’ Rights Directive (SRD). Previously, only a few Member States had created regulatory regimes governing such transactions, yet as of the reform of 2019, detailed procedural and disclosure requirements are compulsory in the European Union today. The Directive’s specifications in Article 9 c grant national legislators substantial discretion to implement new safeguards into national law. This article compares the implementations chosen by Member States and assesses the degree of harmonisation that countries have achieved. It advocates for a more balanced approach and increased coordination with accounting laws. Furthermore, it argues that the new legal regime should be regarded as a significant part of European Corporate Group Law. 702
期刊介绍:
In legislation and in case law, European law has become a steadily more dominant factor in determining national European company laws. The “European Company”, the forthcoming “European Private Company” as well as the Regulation on the Application of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS Regulation”) have accelerated this development even more. The discussion, however, is still mired in individual nations. This is true for the academic field and – even still – for many practitioners. The journal intends to overcome this handicap by sparking a debate across Europe on drafting and application of European company law. It integrates the European company law component previously published as part of the Zeitschrift für Unternehmens- und Gesellschaftsrecht (ZGR), on of the leading German law reviews specialized in the field of company and capital market law. It aims at universities, law makers on both the European and national levels, courts, lawyers, banks and other financial service institutions, in house counsels, accountants and notaries who draft or work with European company law. The journal focuses on all areas of European company law and the financing of companies and business entities. This includes the law of capital markets as well as the law of accounting and auditing and company law related issues of insolvency law. Finally it serves as a platform for the discussion of theoretical questions such as the economic analysis of company law. It consists of articles and case notes on both decisions of the European courts as well as of national courts insofar as they have implications on European company law.
