Download or read book Commonwealth Caribbean Company Law written by Andrew Burgess and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 1126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last twenty five years, company law in the Commonwealth Caribbean has undergone dramatic changes, from a model influenced by English law to a new, harmonised collection of regional legislation based on the Caricom and CLI model Acts that vary substantially across Caricom member states. The variation within Caribbean company law presents an enormous challenge, both in terms of the breadth of the subject and in addressing the difference in provisions of one state’s Company Law Act as opposed to another. Using the Caricom model Act and CLI model Act as a basis for its structure, Commonwealth Caribbean Company Law examines and compares regional implementation of company law in an accessible and comprehensive manner that will be invaluable to students and practitioners in the region.
Download or read book Corporate Governance and Regulation in an Era of Corruption written by Merrick Watson and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent episodes of global corporate corruption indicates that current mechanisms of corporate regulation such as corporate governance procedures that focuses on directors duties and existing legislation has been found wanting as it concerns protecting shareholder's interests from acts of corporate malfeasance. The current law appears to inadequately balance shareholder's rights against the power of corporate control held by directors. As a result, it has proven easy for directors and managers to perpetrate all kinds of corporate improprieties. Globally there are encouraging signs that such imbalances and loopholes are being plugged in order to ensure that the interests of the company are not callously pilfered. In the United States for example the Sarbanes - Oxley reform of 2001 is noteworthy, and in the Commonwealth Caribbean countries like Jamaica, especially after the financial sector collapse of the 1990's, have reformed its company and insurance laws, to incorporate stringent measures and mechanisms to prevent corporate corruption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sports Law has quickly developed into an accepted area of academic study and practice in the legal profession globally. In Europe and North America, Sports Law has been very much a part of the legal landscape for about four decades, while in more recent times, it has blossomed in other geographic regions, including the Commonwealth Caribbean. This book recognizes the rapid evolution of Sports Law and seeks to embrace its relevance to the region. This book offers guidance, instruction and legal perspectives to students, athletes, those responsible for the administration of sport, the adjudication of sports-related disputes and the representation of athletes in the Caribbean. It addresses numerous important themes from a doctrinal, socio-legal and comparative perspective, including sports governance, sports contracts, intellectual property rights and doping in sport, among other thought-provoking issues which touch and concern sport in the Commonwealth Caribbean. As part of the well-established Routledge Commonwealth Caribbean Law Series, this book adds to the Caribbean-centric jurisprudence that has been a welcome development across the region. With this new book, the authors assimilate the applicable case law and legislation into one location in order to facilitate an easier consumption of the legal scholarship in this increasingly important area of law.
