Opis

The current state of English company law on minority shareholders' remedies is analyzed in the light of the UK Law Commission, further appraised and amplified by the Company Law Review Steering Group. The book covers the common law actions by exception to the Rule in Foss v Harbottle, and the statutory remedies by way of petition for unfair prejudice and/or just and equitable winding up. As well as considering the complexities of derivative actions and statutory minority remedies, Boyle discusses future directions for minority shareholders' remedies.
