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.

Book The Role of Disclosure in Strengthening Corporate Governance

Download or read book The Role of Disclosure in Strengthening Corporate Governance written by Lynelle Bagwandeen and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-08 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critically analyses the role of disclosure in strengthening corporate governance and accountability to determine whether a prescriptive system of disclosure is of greater efficacy than a voluntary regime. The research undertaken has been done on a qualitative and theory building basis. The purpose of the study is to examine how current and future legal reform can curb corporate governance shortcomings and contribute to a new more dependable mode of corporate governance. This requires a comparative analysis of the South African and English models which are voluntary ('comply or explain') regimes compared to the prescriptive American model of corporate governance ('comply or else'). The foundational basis, definition and jurisdictional evolution of corporate governance is examined and analysed to ascertain the role of disclosure in relation to good governance. To facilitate this investigation a critical review of the legislative framework and reforms enacted locally (and offshore where applicable) is also undertaken. Disclosure as a concept is probed in terms of both a mandatory disclosure and voluntary disclosure regime.

Book The EU Issuer disclosure Regime

Download or read book The EU Issuer disclosure Regime written by Gaëtane Schaeken Willemaers and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Présentation de l'éditeur : "In an examination that is at once critical, comparative and interdisciplinary, the book discusses the stated objectives of the EU issuer-disclosure regime - principally about retail investor protection - and then goes on to identify objectives that can actually be met in practice, i.e. market efficiency and corporate governance. The author concludes by drawing concrete policy and regulatory implications, along the way covering such aspects and ramifications of the regime. In its defence of the power of market forces as regulatory means, and its clear argument that market finance should be seen at a minimum as a useful complement to bank credit and other financing sources, this important book can claim a privileged space in the debate over the role of disclosure requirements in securities regulation."

Book Corporate Governance  Corporate Responsibility and Law

Download or read book Corporate Governance Corporate Responsibility and Law written by Jean Du Plessis and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disclosure of information has been part of company law for a very long time. It will be recalled that there was a time when nobody contracting with a company could rely on the fact that they did not know of a particular provision in a company's Memorandum of Association or Articles of Association - these documents were "public documents" and accessible to anybody and, thus the notorious "doctrine of constructive notice" applied. That doctrine has been abolished. However, the disclosure of information about companies is still one of the main pillars of our corporations law. Under ASX Listing Rule 3.1 listed entities are expected to immediately disclose "material" information. The "continuous disclosure" regime is also embedded through statutory provisions. Furthermore, financial information must also be disclosed in corporations' financial statements and directors' reports. As will be seen below, apart from these regulatory or statutory required information to be disclosed, under the ASX Corporate Governance Council's Corporate Governance Code ("the Australian Corporate Governance Code"), Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations, there is also an expectation that listed companies should adopt certain policies and disclose these policies. The main focus of this section note is, however, on the disclosure of non-financial information on a totally voluntary basis. Why do corporations disclose non-financial information if not required to do so under law? In disclosing this information, do corporations become better "corporate citizens" accepting wider responsibilities than in the past? Should we move away from a "soft law approach" and, like in the European Union (EU), make it mandatory for large undertakings, to disclose non-financial information?
