Sovereign Debt Restructuring: Search For An Optimum Voting Threshold, Joy Dey Aug 2008

Sovereign Debt Restructuring: Search For An Optimum Voting Threshold, Joy Dey

Joy Dey

Sovereigns have been defaulting on their debts over decades now. A sovereign debt default necessitates a restructuring of the debt instrument in order to reduce the size of the debt or lengthen the maturity period. One of the methods of debt restructuring is an ‘exchange offer’ where the old debt instrument, for example the bond, is exchanged for new debt instruments with altered terms and conditions, particularly the payment terms. Whereas some investors may agree to such restructuring and accept the exchange offer, others might have different aspirations for their investments. A successful sovereign debt restructuring takes place when the …

Transnational Corporations (Tncs) And The Effective Implementation Of Social And Economic Rights: Current And Prospective Avenues, Analia Marsella Feb 2008

Transnational Corporations (Tncs) And The Effective Implementation Of Social And Economic Rights: Current And Prospective Avenues, Analia Marsella

Analia Marsella Sende

In this Essay, I explain the role and impact of transnational corporations in the process of development and implementation of economic and social rights at a global scale and identify the solutions that I regard as plausible. I do so from an international human rights perspective that integrates both the legal and non-legal approaches. I concentrate on the international aspects of legalization, adjudication, and policy making. First, I analyze social and economic rights in the current context, the old and most recent understandings, and the challenges posed by the phenomenon of globalization together with the rising of corporations in the …

Arbitration Clauses In Public Company Charters: An Expansion Of The Adr Elysian Fields Or A Descent Into Hades?, Christos A. Ravanides Jan 2008

Arbitration Clauses In Public Company Charters: An Expansion Of The Adr Elysian Fields Or A Descent Into Hades?, Christos A. Ravanides

Christos A. Ravanides

This article contributes to the long stalled debate about the arbitrability of disputes between publicly-held companies, their shareholders and directors, one of the last, zealously guarded bastions of judicial competence. A crucial difference between this and prior commentary is that the subject is not viewed in a vacuum: significant developments, both domestic and international, signal radical changes in the perception of the legal and policy implications of intra-public company arbitration.

The article first heeds proposals in high profile reports that public shareholders be allowed to experiment with privatized alternatives to traditional derivative and class litigation, as a way to reduce …

John Paul Ii And Employee Participation In Corporate Governance, Michael Lp Lower Jan 2008

John Paul Ii And Employee Participation In Corporate Governance, Michael Lp Lower

Michael LP Lower

Catholic Social Thought ("CST") has called for employees to be active participants in the governance of the enterprises for which they work. This article looks at what CST has to say about employee participation. It shows that John Paul II's distinctive contribution was to lay bare the theological and philosophical justifications for CST's approach to this issue.


Christian Anthropology And The Theory Of The Firm, Michael Lp Lower Jan 2008

Christian Anthropology And The Theory Of The Firm, Michael Lp Lower

Michael LP Lower

Catholic social thought (CST), a branch of moral theology, reflects Christian anthropology (an understanding of human nature that draws on Revelation and natural law theory). CST's understanding of what communities (such as the corporation) are for and how they can best achieve their ends are coloured by its anthropological underpinnings. The same, it is argued, is true for economic theories such as the theories of the firm based on Coase. This paper compares Christian anthropology with the implicit anthropology underpinning some of the dominant economic theories of the firm. Differences at this level go a long way to explaining mismatches …


The North Dakota Publicly Trade Corporations Act: A Branding Initiative Without A (North Dakota) Brand, Joshua P. Fershee Jan 2008

The North Dakota Publicly Trade Corporations Act: A Branding Initiative Without A (North Dakota) Brand, Joshua P. Fershee

Joshua P Fershee

Any time a new market is entered and a new brand is created, whether it is the market for corporate governance laws or consumer electronics, it is essential to understand the market and have a clear vision of what the brand is supposed to be. When the North Dakota Publicly Traded Corporations Act (Act) became law on July 2, 2007, the state of North Dakota officially entered (or tried to enter) the corporate governance market. Rather than adding to the already significant debate about the value of increased shareholder rights or arguing that the Act was bad (or good) for …


No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Is There A Need For A Safe Harbor For Aspirational Codes Of Conduct?, Elizabeth F. Brown Jan 2008

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Is There A Need For A Safe Harbor For Aspirational Codes Of Conduct?, Elizabeth F. Brown

Elizabeth F Brown

Over the years, Congress and some state legislatures have enacted laws to encourage corporations to engage in self-policing by providing them with incentives to adopt codes of conduct and compliance programs. In the case of the Federal Organizational Sentencing Guidelines, Congress offered corporations lower penalties if they were found in violation of a federal law but had adopted codes of conduct and compliance programs to try to comply with the law. In the case of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Congress require public corporations to disclose if they had a code of ethic and if not, why not. Congress assumed that the …
