Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 4.0, University of Lagos, course: Company Law, language: English, abstract: Company Capital is, without a shadow of doubt, the lifeblood of a company. Whether viewed in the light of the subjective approach, (capital as residing in physical goods which can produce other goods and services), or objective approach (the monetary sum at the investors’ disposal), one thing remains true. Without capital, companies cannot function. However, a company may alter its capital for different reasons, some of them include: to suit the needs of the investors, to write off the deficit and fund current liabilities, to maintain a balance between preference and equity shares, and balance out the financial plan, and even to meet legal requirements. In altering their capital, companies must abide by the hallowed provisions set out in the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020. To this end, this paper gives a detailed explanation of the meaning, nature, and legal requirements for the alteration of company capital.

Download or read book Taking a Common Concern Approach to Economic Inequality written by Alexander D. Beyleveld and published by World Trade Institute Advanced. This book was released on 2022 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wealth exists only for the benefit of mankind. It cannot be measured adequately in yards or in tons, nor as equivalent as so many ounces of gold; its true measure lies only in the contribution it makes to human well-being. Now, when bricks and sand and lime and wood are built up into a house, they constitute a greater aggregate of wealth than they did before; even though their aggregate volume is the same as before; and, if the house is overthrown by an earthquake, there is indeed no destruction of matter; but there is a real destruction of wealth, because the matter is distributed in a manner less conducive to human well-being. Similarly, when wealth is very unevenly distributed, some have more of it than they can turn to any very great account in promoting their own well-being; while many others lack the material conditions of a healthy, clean, vigorous and effective family life. That is to say the wealth is distributed in a manner less conducive to the well-being of mankind than it would be if the rich were somewhat less rich, and the poor were somewhat less poor; and real wealth would be greatly increased, even though there were no change in the aggregate of bricks and houses and clothes and other material things, if only it were possible to effect that change without danger to freedom and to social order"--

Download or read book Roles of the Organs and Officers of an Incorporated Company written by Okechukwu Dominic Nwankwo and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, , course: LAW, language: English, abstract: This is a research work on the “roles of the organs and officers of an incorporated company”. In it, the organs are identified as the General Meeting (shareholders), and the Board of Directors, while the officers are identified as the directors, secretary, auditor, legal adviser. The company’s organs take the key critical resolutions cum decisions that sway the company for better or worse. And these resolutions cum decision are implemented through corporate management or governance by the officers of the company. As legal personality, the company has a separate existence from the founders. Yet it is operated by human beings. The company functions through its Memorandum and Articles of Association, which can be altered through resolution passed by the majority of the company members at the General Meeting. Similarly, the company’s performance is also regulated by other statutory law, for example the Companies and Allied Matters Act, otherwise known as CAMA. Most of the company’s officers are appointed by the Board of Directors. However, this is subject to confirmation at the General Meeting. Consequently, as a going concern/business, the company is prosperous when there is a healthy relationship between the organs, and officers, and particularly between the General Meeting (Shareholders), and the Board of Directors. Though the General Meeting works by the resolutions passed by the majority members, yet there are exceptions to this when the court enforces an individual member(s) action against the majority’s decisions. This is an exception to the rule in Foss V Harbottle. The aim is to check fraud and ultra vires activities in the company. To be valid, an officer’s acts shall be done in good faith, diligently, and with care; and the company shall hold the officer liable for such acts. Essentially, the common law held the view that company’s officers owed their services to the company only, and not individual shareholders. However, this position has been rejected by the modern company practice and knowledge. Hence, the roles of the contemporary company officers have been enlarged to embrace serving the company which employees them, the individuals shareholders under relevant circumstances, as well as the generality of the public that benefits or is affected by the activities of the company. Fundamentally, company practices in Nigeria are bedeviled by the apathy of the stakeholders in corporate governances, except when there is a selfis

Download or read book Comparative Company Law written by O. Nwafor and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2020-07-01 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Topics discussed in this book are deliberately comparative and show the different levels of the ground rules for the regulation of corporate operations in the different jurisdictions. The United Kingdom, Nigeria and South Africa are primarily chosen simply on the common law background upon which the statutory provisions in those countries are founded. There are also references to Canada, Australia and India on case by case basis to illustrate the differences in the application of the relevant legal principles and statutory interpretations. The insights gained should facilitate statutory amendments and effective adjustment in the operations of the regulatory agencies and business organizations. The book is written as an invaluable study material for students at the tertiary level. Illuminating the concepts from divergent perspectives avails the reader a broad range of explanations for a better understanding of the subject. Legal practitioners and the judiciary should also find in this work a good source of legal information on company law, especially whenever the need arises to seek persuasive guidance from the opinions of courts and writers on similar developments in cognate jurisdictions to give meaning to those difficult and uncharted courses in the discharge of their daily responsibilities of interpreting and applying the law as judicial officers. The book should be a handy material for those running the affairs of a company in understanding the rules of their engagement.
