Download or read book Corporate Governance Enforcement and Financial Development written by Chen Ding and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔDing ChenÕs detailed institutional analysis of the development of the Chinese stock market brings the question of enforcement to centre stage. In doing so, she not only introduces readers to the particularities of the Chinese system; she also sheds new light on conventional debates about the law and economics of corporate governance.Õ Ð Andrew Johnston, University of Sheffield, UK ÔIn this book Dr Ding Chen has made an important theoretical contribution to our understanding of corporate governance in transitional economies and of corporate governance in China especially. Drawing upon the insights of New Institutional Economics theory she examines the interplay between formal and informal enforcement mechanisms relating to corporate governance in China. To support this argument the book breaks new ground by providing a comprehensive examination of enforcement actions in ChinaÕs stock market; her findings are at variance from conclusions found in other research, such as in the law and finance literature. Rather than simply imitating the dominant Anglo-American model of corporate governance, she argues that local conditions will greatly affect the choice of the most appropriate governance models. This has been especially so in China.Õ Ð Roman Tomasic, University of South Australia and Durham Law School, UK This important new book attempts to establish a fresh conceptual framework for the study of corporate governance by employing the new institutional economics of contract enforcement. This framework helps to clarify two critical issues including the role of law in financial development and whether there is an optimal corporate governance model that should be followed by countries attempting to develop their own stock markets. Applying this novel framework, the author conducts a comprehensive study on Chinese corporate governance and discovers that the Chinese stock market has rapidly expanded even in the absence of any effective institutions. She provides a credible explanation to this ÔChina puzzleÕ by arguing that the growth of the stock market is mainly driven by state guarantees, institutional rent seeking by state-owned companies, financial repression and investorsÕ speculation. Indeed, there is probably nowhere better to look than ChinaÕs stock market to assess the limits of the gradualist approach to financial development. As the book explains, the potential efficiency gains that could be created by a healthy, well-functioning stock market have been completely outweighed by the consideration of maintaining the existing political system. This book will appeal to scholars and students of economics and law with an interest in corporate governance, Chinese economic development and new institutional economics.

This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid economic development has focused attention from around the world upon China's corporate governance regime-particularly as, during the past few years, some of China's companies, mainly large, state-owned companies, have been aggressively buying foreign businesses overseas. China's huge capital injection and aggressive foreign investments have raised increasing and deep concerns among the target countries' governments, their business communities, and the global public. It is clearly of great importance that the people's Republic of China's business-partner countries understand corporate governance of many Chinese state-owned companies calls for a closer look at China's corporate governance theory and practice. The corporate disclosure regime plays a critical role in this regard. This timely and highly informative book provides, for the first time, comprehensive research on corporate governance in China, with detailed attention to the formation and reform of its corporate disclosure laws and regulations. Among the many factors analyzed are the following: -the role of the government in the management of state-owned companies; -the legal and regulatory environment; -majority shareholders' infringement of listed companies' interests' -the increasing independence of the boards of directors; -the role of institutional investor; -the shareholding structure; -law enforcement and shareholders' legal actions; -unmonitored insiders' control of corporate affairs; -the external governance structure; and -the absence of fiduciary duty. The author describes the nature of the many breaches of disclosure laws and rules in the two decades or so of the history of China's securities market and the pressures within the relevant government agencies confronting the problem. As a detailed analysis of the Chinese corporate disclosure regime that has emerged during the period of China's economic transition since the 1990's, this incomparable book will be of great interest to legal researchers, policymakers, and legal practitioners working with business investments in China.
Download or read book Chinese Company and Securities Law written by Chengwei Liu and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-01-21 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China enjoys the highest level of foreign investment of any country in the world today. Yet, despite substantial liberalization in last decades, investment in China remains tightly circumscribed. For complex reasons stemming from China’s protection of its own internal economy, the government hedges foreign investments, either green field Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) or Mergers and Acquisitions (M&As), with a complex system of laws, regulations and guidelines, bristling with challenges and uncertainties for even the simplest investment or restructurings. This detailed, systematic explanation – by a practicing lawyer with over ten years experience at one of the top law firms in China – provides thorough and up-to-date guidance on the rules and procedures affecting FDI, M&As, and listings in China today. Focusing on such practical matters as key regulations, regulatory requirements, and transactional procedures and structures, the author leads the practitioner through the maze of interconnected national and local authorities, with expert knowledge of when and under what circumstances various rules apply and when they do not as well as practical skills on how to structure a particular deal under current regulations. Included in this superb analysis are detailed descriptions of such factors as the following: • establishment of a new Foreign Invested Enterprise (FIE), including a substantial review of the establishment of both common FIEs (either whole foreign ownership or joint ventures with Chinese parties) and particular FIEs (such as a foreign invested holding company, stock company or partnership); • the cross-border acquisition of a domestic company by foreign investors including the restructuring of existing FIEs by way of domestic re-investment or equity transfer or mergers; • the takeover of a PRC listed company by foreign investors through such ways as a Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (QFII/RQFII) or strategic investment; • the acquisition of a State-Owned Enterprise (SOE), either listed or non-listed SOE; • the merger control review and national security review involved in an M&A transaction; and • the Initial Public Offering (IPO), follow-on offerings including private placement on Chinese capital market, as well as the issuance of corporate bonds in China. Since the year 2008 when the first edition was published, lots of significant developments were made in regard to the laws and regulations in FDI, M&As and capital market. Such developments and new regulations are given an up-to-date analysis in this second edition. For law firms advising companies on investing in China, or for in-house counsel, this book is without peer as a comprehensive, reliable and easy-to-use resource. At every stage of a project, from the initial business decision to problems arising after successful start-up and during day-to-day operations, it will provide clear, authoritative guidance for years to come.
Download or read book Protecting Investors in China through Multiple Regulatory Mechanisms and Effective Enforcement written by Chenxia Shi and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brisk pace of globalization coupled with China's entry to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 2001 has heightened the international competition faced by Chinese securities market players. In turn, that increased competition has catalyzed both regulation and measured liberalization of China's securities markets. Previous company and securities laws lacked effective civil remedies for investors and the right to commence derivative actions. Because the laws were inadequate in that area, investors in China's securities markets (particularly minority investors) were susceptible to market manipulation and fraud and were often left without redress. Recent amendments to Chinese securities law and company law, which are focused on protecting investors, have improved the regulation of the securities markets. But it remains to be seen whether improved legislation will change practices, as law enforcement has been a long-standing concern in China.This Article investigates the regulatory and enforcement issues confronting listed companies and stock exchanges in China. Part II traces the history of the current regulatory frameworks for listed companies and stock exchanges. Part III identifies flaws in the regulation of listed companies and stock exchanges caused by the China Securities Regulatory Commission's (CSRC) tight control. Part IV discusses enforcement issues affecting regulators and investors. Part V proposes reforms for regulation that provides effective investor protection.

Download or read book Securities Regulation in China written by Sanzhu Zhu and published by Brill Nijhoff. This book was released on 2000 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A co-publication with Simmonds and Hill In this important study, Dr. Zhu Sanzhu offers a thorough account of the tortuous passage of China from an experimental securities market, subject to regional and local or ministerial regulation, to a full-fledged national securities law. China has conducted its securities experiments within a limited private and quasi-private sector, not linking them, as has been true in Central and Eastern Europe, to the rapid privatisation of the instruments and means of production. The capital markets in China are, for certain actors in the economy, a test of economic performance, economic efficiency, and public confidence. Dr Zhu also provides a translation of the Securities Law of the People's Republic of China along with a glossary of Chinese terms. This volume is an essential resource for all those engaging in business with China or studying the integration of the Chinese economy into the world community. Published under the Transnational Publishers imprint.

Book excerpt: The number of interactions between China's stock markets and markets in other parts of the world continues to grow prodigiously. However, as in many transitional economies, insider control and inefficient law enforcement pose serious problems for the corporate governance of Chinese listed companies. Using a law and economics approach, this book first analyses the types of pervasive misconduct of large shareholders in China's listed companies, and then offers concrete reform proposals toward effective protection of minority shareholders in the interwoven areas of regulation, enforcement, and the judiciary. The author addresses the necessity for recognizing the fiduciary duty of controlling shareholders, for improving voting rights for minority shareholders, for enhancing the disclosure system, and for restricting insider trading and market manipulation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does private enforcement of securities law work in China? Does it have any advantages, when it is compared with other regulatory mechanisms, e.g. public enforcement and self-regulation? This article critically discusses these questions. Firstly, by some case studies, it exploits recent development of private enforcement of securities law in three different dimensions: enhanced judicial independence, enhanced professional and discretionary abilities, and technological enhancement of judicial practice. Secondly, by comparing with self-regulation regime, it generates the competing advantages of the private enforcement of securities law in the Chinese context.

Download or read book Understanding Public Enforcement of Securities Law in China written by Wenming Xu and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the public enforcement (PE) of securities law in China. We exploit the external positive shock to enforcement intensity due to the reform decentralizing the authority to impose administrative sanctions (AS) and show that shares in the pilot project experience statistically significant, but economically insignificant, abnormal returns (AR). Furthermore, we examine the market reactions to PE actions against informational misconduct and find that shares receiving AS suffer an average AR of approximately -12.03% over the (-1,5) event window, whereas those receiving non-AS experience economically insignificant AR. Next, we investigate the impacts of PE actions on the external debt financing, and show a significant decrease in external debt financing associated with firms receiving AS compared to those receiving non-AS. Finally, for the subsample of shares sanctioned by ROs, we find that firm size significantly reduces the likelihood of receiving AS, but neither governmental ownership nor political participation matters.
