A Practical Guide to Common Issues in Corporate Control Disputes (1)

In companies established through joint investments, there will often be disagreement among the shareholders. At this time, the shareholders tend to focus only on the provisions of the company’s articles of association, believing that only major matters stipulated in the articles of association require an absolute majority or a unanimous resolution. What’s more, the majority shareholders of some companies take advantage of their shareholding ratio to force through resolutions that are unfavorable to minority shareholders. In this session, we will discuss with you some common corporate matters which may not be stipulated in the articles of association, but the judicial practice requires a unanimous consent of all shareholders for the adoption of such matters. We hope that through this session, you will have a better understanding of the balance between the interests of shareholders and the efficiency of corporate governance under the company law, which will serve as a reference for the corporate governance.
