Beskrivning

While Western economies generally display dispersed shareholding in listed companies, Asian economies commonly have concentrated shareholding also in publicly listed companies. The principal analysis in Comparative Takeover Regulation relates to the role of takeover regulation in different economies. In the Asian context, the nature of takeover regulation may necessitate a different approach, with greater emphasis on the mandatory bids and disclosure of substantial shareholding. The likelihood of hostile takeovers will be minimal. It is these differences among various jurisdictions that strike at the heart of Varottil and Wan's new work. Ideal for educational institutions that teach corporate law, corporate governance, and mergers and acquisitions, as well as for law firms, corporate counsel and other practitioners, Comparative Takeover Regulation provides students and scholars with brand new analysis of this increasingly important field of study.

Recensioner i media

'Wai Yee Wan and Umakanth Varottil have done an invaluable service by collecting a comparative study of Asian takeover law as well as a volume which examines the theoretical underpinnings of takeover law itself. The essays are practical while also providing a thorough and intelligent study of the variety of Asian takeover law. Practitioners will find this volume an invaluable resource while academics in this area will find that this is the 'must read' book for use in their research.' Steven Davidoff Solomon, University of California, Berkeley and The Deal Professor for The New York Times
