Produktbeschreibung
The book provides readers with an overview of the unique features of German business and enterprise law and an in-depth analysis of the organs of governance of German public limited companies (general meeting, management board, supervisory board). In addition, approaches for reforms required at the international level are also suggested and discussed, including, among others, the unique interplay and dynamics of the German two-tier board model with the system of codetermination, referring to the arrangement of employees sitting on the supervisory boards of German public limited companies and private companies employing more than 500 employees; also covered are significant recent legal developments in Europe. The book highlights the core function of valuation and financial reporting at the international, European and German levels, with accounting as the documentary proof of good corporate governance. Corporate governance encompasses the free enterprise system, whichis treated comprehensively in this book from a German perspective. This distinguishes the book from other books written in English in this subject area, not only because of the comprehensive way it covers German corporate law and corporate governance, but also because of the fact that it provides international and European perspectives on these important topics. The book is addressed to researchers, practitioners and basically anyone with an interest in the complex, but intriguing areas of corporate law and corporate governance.

Rezensionen
From the reviews of the second edition:

"The targeted audience is twofold: firstly, the book targets managers and directors of companies as well as investors who want to comprehend the German model of corporate governance and its institutional setting ... . Secondly, the book targets non-German postgraduate students, academic scholars, and others who, for language reasons, cannot read the vast amount of German literature on the topic ... . It provides great insight on German business law literature for non-English readers as well as important decisions of German and European courts." (Axel Haller, The International Journal of Accounting, September, 2013)
