Should Firms Be Allowed To Indemnify Their Employees For Sanctions?, Wallace P. Mullin, Christopher M. Snyder 2010 George Washington University

Should Firms Be Allowed To Indemnify Their Employees For Sanctions?, Wallace P. Mullin, Christopher M. Snyder

Dartmouth Scholarship

Policymakers have questioned whether firms should be allowed to indemnify their employees for personal sanctions for corporate crimes. This article provides the first formal analysis of this form of indemnification. Targeting employees with unindemnifiable sanctions carries the social cost of exposing employees of law-abiding firms to the risk of mistaken government prosecution. Deterrence is typically achieved more efficiently by sanctioning the firm alone. We find the circumstances under which the government shouldadditionally sanction employees to be quite limited and the circumstances under which the government should ban indemnification of these sanctions to be more limited still. One circumstance is when …

Beyond Shareholder Value: Normative Standards For Sustainable Corporate Governance, Robert Sprague 2010 William & Mary Law School

Beyond Shareholder Value: Normative Standards For Sustainable Corporate Governance, Robert Sprague

William & Mary Business Law Review

This Article explores whether the modern corporate governance model is sustainable. For many corporations, particularly large ones, there is a separation between ownership and management, with a management emphasis on short-term gains at the expense of long-term sustainability. This Article explores the role of corporate directors, particularly vis-a-vis shareholders, from an interdisciplinary perspective, analyzing legal case law as well as legal, management, and finance literature. This Article explores emerging trends in expanding notions of corporate governance that incorporate concerns beyond just shareholders, recognizing the interrelationship between business and society. It is suggested that in order to remain viable and competitive, …

To Be Or Not To Be? Citizens United And The Corporate Form, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah 2010 University of Michigan Law School

To Be Or Not To Be? Citizens United And The Corporate Form, Reuven S. Avi-Yonah

Law & Economics Working Papers

In Citizens United vs. FEC, the Supreme Court struck down a Federal ban on direct corporate expenditures on political campaigns. The decision has been widely criticized and praised as a matter of First Amendment law. But it is also interesting as another step in the evolution of our legal views of the corporation. The thesis of this Article is that by viewing Citizens United through the prism of theories about the corporate form, it is possible to understand why both the majority and the dissent departed from previous Supreme Court cases on the First Amendment rights of corporations, and to …

Populist Retribution And International Competition In Financial Services Regulation, Adam C. Pritchard 2010 University of Michigan Law School

Populist Retribution And International Competition In Financial Services Regulation, Adam C. Pritchard

Law & Economics Working Papers

This essay compares the current effort to reform financial services regulation with the regulatory initiatives that come out of the Great Depression. Unlike the 1930s, policymakers today must account for the impact of regulatory competition in crafting responses to the financial crisis. The available evidence suggests that jurisdictional competition is no match for the forces of populist retribution in modern democratic states.


Co2 Mtic Fraud -- Technologically Exploiting The Eu Vat (Again), Richard Thompson Ainsworth 2010 Boston University School of Law

Co2 Mtic Fraud -- Technologically Exploiting The Eu Vat (Again), Richard Thompson Ainsworth

Faculty Scholarship

On February 1, 2010 Algirdas Šemeta is expected to be confirmed as the next European commissioner for taxation, customs union, audit and anti-fraud. If his nomination passes a confirmation hearing at the European Parliament he will succeed László Kovács. At the top of Mr. Šemeta’s list of things requiring attention should be MTIC fraud in tradable CO2 permits. Political and fiscal realities make CO2 MTIC fraud a top priority.

CO2 MTIC is a technology-driven fraud that takes advantage of the same weaknesses in the EU VAT that have become well known in the cell phone and computer chip trade. The …

Corporate Law In The Shanghai People's Courts, 1992-2008: Judicial Autonomy In A Contemporary Authoritarian State, Nicholas C. Howson 2010 University of Michigan Law School

Corporate Law In The Shanghai People's Courts, 1992-2008: Judicial Autonomy In A Contemporary Authoritarian State, Nicholas C. Howson

Law & Economics Working Papers

In late 2005 China adopted a largely rewritten Company Law that radically increased the role of courts. This study, based on a review of more than 1000 Company Law-related disputes reported between 1992 and 2008 and extensive interactions with PRC officials and sitting judges, evaluates how the Shanghai People’s Court system has fared over 15 years in corporate law adjudication. Although the Shanghai People’s Courts show generally increasing technical competence and even intimations of political independence, their path toward institutional autonomy is inconsistent. Through 2006, the Shanghai Court system demonstrated significantly increased autonomy. After 2006 and enactment of the new …
