Corporate finance theory seeks to understand how incorporated firms address the financial constraints that affect their investment decisions. This is achieved by using varied financial instruments that seek to give holders different claims on the firm's assets. Recent scholarship in this area has highlighted the critical importance of the legal environment in explaining the choices that companies make about their capital structure. This book combines company law, capital markets law, and aspects of commercial and insolvency law to give readers a detailed understanding of the legal and regulatory issues relating to corporate finance. Informed by insights from theoretical and empirical work, the book examines from a legal perspective the key elements of corporate financing structures and capital markets in the UK. The authors' practical experience of transactions and regulatory issues ensures that thorough scholarly inquiry and critical reflection are complemented by an assured understanding of the interface between legal principles and rules as they are documented and in their actual operation. Key developments covered in this third edition include the post-Brexit adaptation of UK company law and capital market regulation, important new cases on parent company liability in tort, creditor-facing duties of directors, issuer and director liability for misleading statements to the market, alternatives to public market financing, and recent changes in the practice of debt finance such as the emergence of non-bank lenders.

Mediation provides an attractive alternative to resolving disputes through court proceedings. Mediation promises just results in the interest of all parties concerned, a reduction of the court caseload, and cost savings for the parties involved as well as for the treasury.The European Directive on Mediation has given mediation in Europe new momentum by establishing a common framework for cross-border mediation. Beyond Europe, many states have tried in recent years to answer the question whether, and if so, how mediation should be regulated at a national and international level.The aim of this book is to promote the understanding and discussion of regulatory issues by presenting comparative research on mediation. It describes and analyses the law and practice of mediation in twenty-two countries. Europe is represented by chapters on mediation in Austria, Bulgaria, England, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal and Spain. The world beyond Europe is analysed in chapters on mediation in Australia, Canada, China, Japan, New Zealand, Russia, Switzerland and the USA.Against this background, further chapters on fundamental issues identify possible regulatory models and discuss central principles of mediation law and practice. In particular, the work considers harmonisation and diversity in the law of mediation as well as the economic and constitutional problems associated with privatising civil justice. To the extent available, empirical research is used as a point of reference in the critical analysis.

This book proposes a principled approach to the regulation of dispute resolution. It covers dispute resolution mechanisms in all their varieties, including negotiation, mediation, conciliation, expert opinion, mini-trial, ombud procedures, arbitration and court adjudication. The authors present a transnational Guide for Regulating Dispute Resolution (GRDR). The regulatory principles contained in this Guide are based on a functional taxonomy of dispute resolution mechanisms, an open normative framework and a modular structure of regulatory topics. The Guide for Regulating Dispute Resolution is formulated and commented upon in a concise manner to assist legislators, policy-makers, professional associations, practitioners and academics in thinking about which solutions best suit local and regional circumstances. The aim of this book is to contribute to the understanding and development of the legal framework governing national and international dispute resolution. Theory, empirical research and regulatory models have been taken from the wealth of experience in 12 jurisdictions: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland and the United States of America. Experts with a background in academia, practice and law-making describe and analyse the regulatory framework and social reality of dispute resolution in these countries. On this basis the authors draw conclusions about policy choices, regulatory strategies and the practice of conflict resolution.This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's International Arbitration online service.

Mediation ist eine Alternative zur gerichtlichen Lösung von Konflikten. Sie verspricht eine nachhaltige Bewältigung von Streitigkeiten, gerechte Ergebnisse im Interesse aller Beteiligten, eine Entlastung der Judikative sowie Kostenersparnisse auf Seiten der Streitenden und des Fiskus.Die europäische Mediationsrichtlinie vom Mai 2008 gibt der Mediation in Deutschland wichtige Impulse. Sie regelt grenzüberschreitende Mediationen in Europa und provoziert die Frage nach einer grundlegenden Regelung der Mediation in Deutschland.Der vorliegende Band geht auf ein Gutachten im Auftrag des Bundesjustizministeriums der Bundesrepublik Deutschland zurück. Die Autoren der Beiträge untersuchen, welche Antworten andere Rechtsordnungen auf die Fragen nach dem Ob und Wie der Regelung der Mediation geben. Die Publikation enthält sechs umfangreiche Untersuchungen zu Regelungen und Praxis der Mediation in Österreich, Frankreich, England, den Niederlanden, den USA und Japan. Hinzu kommen kürzer gehaltene Berichte zur Mediation in Australien, Bulgarien, China, Irland, Kanada, Neuseeland, Norwegen, Polen, Portugal, Russland, Schweiz, Spanien und Ungarn. Der Generalbericht nimmt die Untersuchungen der Regeln und - soweit zugänglich - Rechtstatsachen auf und vergleicht Regelungsmodelle und empirischen Erkenntnisse mit Blick auf Deutschland und Europa. Ergänzend kommt eine ökonomische Analyse der Mediation zwischen Rechtsschutz und Privatisierung der Justiz in den USA sowie eine Auswahl weiterführender Normtexte und Materialien hinzu.

Tillfälligt slut
Die Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise hat Schwächen der Corporate Governance offengelegt. Nach der Überwindung der Krise gilt es, die Vorbilder und Ziele eines modernen Wirtschaftsrechts neu zu bestimmen. Zu diesem Zweck haben die Juristen des Cusanuswerks führende Stimmen der Corporate Governance aus Wissenschaft und Praxis zu einer Tagung in Bonn vom 29. Oktober bis zum 1. November 2010 eingeladen. Behandelt wurden nicht nur die klassischen Fragen der Corporate Governance, etwa die Trennung von Eigentum und Leitungsmacht. Der Bogen wurde weiter gespannt: von den Grundsatzfragen, über den Wettbewerb der Rechtsordnungen, Unternehmensübernahmen, Stellung der Wirtschaftsprüfer, Managementverantwortung und -entlohnung, Professionalisierung des Aufsichtsrats, Darlehensverbriefungen bis hin zur Banken- und Unternehmenssanierung.
