European Company Law
European Company Law
Taking a text, cases and materials approach, this book remains the main student textbook on European company law, providing valuable insights into the subject and shedding light on its future development. Textboxes for explanatory content, cases and materials – such as EU legislation, official documents and excerpts from scholarly papers – are clearly differentiated from the text, allowing students to quickly identify sources. Each chapter also includes suggestions for further reading. Structured in seven parts, the book explores topics ranging from what European company law is, and the common rules for the establishment, financing and accounting of a company, to corporate governance, the structure of the Societas Europaea Statute, EU company law directives, capital markets and takeover law, and insolvency. The book is an essential resource for the growing number of graduate courses on European company law, European business law, and comparative corporate law.
