Les Banques Libanaises Sont-Elles En État De Cessation De Payement ?, Antoine Fares Eid

Proche-Orient, Études juridiques

To the question : “Are the Lebanese banks in cessation of payment ?”, the answer is obviously yes according to both the special definition of the cessation of payment of banks in the Intra law no. 2/1967, and the general definition of the “cessation of payment” in the Code of commerce (article 489). The legal scrutiny so confirms the common “feeling” of obvious bankruptcy of the banks for almost three years. In parallel, are refuted the exceptions opposed by the banks, such as the alleged payment by cheques which are actually “cheques sans provision”, or “ …

في صفة المساهم، في قانون الشركات التجاريّة الإماراتي، بأن يرفع منفرداً دعوى الشركة بالمسؤوليّة المدنيّة ضد أعضاء مجلس إدارة الشركة المساهمة من الصياغة الملتبسة للمادة ١٦٦ سنة ٢٠١٥ الى إشكاليات تعديلات ٢٠٢٠, أنطوان فارس عيد

Proche-Orient, Études juridiques

This study dealt, initially in 2018, with a long-running controversial issue in doctrine and case law, namely the determining criterion in civil liability of board members in a joint-stock company allowing to differentiate between the company’s claim that the shareholder can exercise alone (known as ut singuli claim) and the shareholder’s claim to request compensation for his "individual" damage. The new 2015 UAE law for commercial companies has confused, in the wording used in Article 166, between the damage suffered by the company and the "individual" damage suffered by the shareholder. This confusion has been corrected in the amending Law …

The Public Private Partnership (Ppp) Method: Insights From The Arab Region Context In General And Dubai Market In Particular, Rita Waked

Proche-Orient, Études juridiques

The Public Private Partnership (PPP) as a form of association involving a public entity and a private person has become a global innovative trend for governments seeking to finance their infrastructure, and has gradually established itself as a driving force of the economic recovery in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. This article examines the PPP’s main features and the pillar of its success, at a time where it is experiencing a resurgence of interest in Arab countries, and in particular in Dubai where the adoption in 2015 of a PPP law reflects the Emirate’s consciousness of the importance of …

La Réforme Du Code De Commerce Libanais : Impact Sur Le Fonctionnement Des Sociétés Anonymes, Patrick Soumrani

Proche-Orient, Études juridiques

Except for specific limited amendments, the Lebanese corporate law has remained unchanged for many years. Several drafts aiming to reform and modernize such law have been prepared since the 1990s. But it is only in 2019 that a new draft has been voted hastily by the parliament, and has entered into effect on the 1st of July 2019. The reform brings numerous advantages: it facilitates the functioning of limited liability companies and joint stock companies, introduces the single partner limited liability company, provides for specific provisions governing the GDRs, as well as companies’ mergers and splits, and sanctions penalty the …

Public Means Public: A Call For Amendment Of The Copyright Act Of 1976'S Public Display Right To Immunize Private Businesses From Unintentional Infringement, Lucy Greaney

Et Cetera

Private businesses increasingly face copyright liability and burdensome licensing fees under the Public Display Provision of the Copyright Act of 1976, despite engaging in activities that cannot be truly considered public. This Note examines the historical development of the Public Display Provision, analyzes case law involving public accommodations and semi-private entities, and explores the intersection between copyright enforcement and U.S. antitrust principles. It argues that Congress did not intend for private, employee-only business settings to fall within the scope of the Public Display Provision and that the current enforcement regime enables anticompetitive licensing practices by performing rights organizations. To resolve …

Disproportionate Influence: Rethinking Control In American Corporate Governance, Dhruv Aggarwal, Ofer Eldar

Northwestern University Law Review

Corporate law has undergone a gradual transformation. Founding chief executive officers (“founder-CEOs”) and activist hedge funds increasingly dominate leading American corporations despite owning well short of a majority of shares. Founder-CEOs, through personal brands or dual-class voting structures, control firms despite having minority stakes; activist hedge funds, with single-digit holdings, press for major governance changes. We argue that these two types of shareholders, often treated as opposites, both dominate corporations through disproportionate influence rather than majority ownership. We describe these investors who dictate corporate policy through disproportionate influence as high-influence shareholders.

Delaware’s doctrinal response to high-influence shareholders has been inconsistent, …

Contractualizing Corporate Governance, Jonathan C. Lipson, Eli Alexander Evans

University of Miami Law Review

The relationship between fiduciary duty and contract has never been clear. The law of fiduciaries has long constrained discretionary control of other people’s property, notably in corporate governance, where directors owe a corporation duties of care and loyalty. Yet, contract has also had the capacity to modify these duties in important—but uncertain—ways because neither body of law contains a meta-rule specifying which would “trump” in the event of conflict. Uncertainty was rarely problematic, however, because directors lacked the power to fully contract away their control of the corporation or their concomitant fiduciary duties.

This has changed in the past thirty …

Tymczasowy Zarząd Przymusowy – Sankcyjny Instrument Interwencjonizmu Państwa, Filip Grzegorczyk, Patrycja Życińska

internetowy Kwartalnik Antymonopolowy i Regulacyjny (internet Quarterly on Antitrust and Regulation)

Agresja Rosji na Ukrainę spowodowała reakcję Unii Europejskiej w postaci m.in. nałożenia sankcji gospodarczych na osoby i podmioty wspierające rosyjski reżim. Polska należy do tych państw członkowskich UE, które wprowadziły dodatkowy, krajowy system sankcji, co reguluje ustawa o szczególnych rozwiązaniach w zakresie przeciwdziałania wspieraniu agresji na Ukrainę oraz służących ochronie bezpieczeństwa narodowego. Poza sankcjami stanowiącymi lustrzane odbicie systemu unijnego, ustawodawca zdecydował o wprowadzeniu środków uzupełniających, tj. tymczasowego zarządu przymusowego i zarządu w celu przejęcia własności. Rozwiązania te – w praktyce niezwykle rzadko spotykane – tak głęboko ingerują w rynek, że powinny stanowić przedmiot badań naukowych w ramach publicznego prawa gospodarczego. …

Denizens Of Dexit: Why Controlled Companies Are The First To Leave The First State, Jack Kanzler

Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review

A series of high-profile companies announcing plans to leave the state of Delaware and reincorporate out of state has sparked many commentators to predict a coming wave of corporate exodus from the First State called “DExit.” This paper seeks to explore the DExit “movement” with a particular focus on “controlled companies” and the recent doctrinal developments that have created a perception that Delaware law has become hostile to such governance arrangements. I will begin by discussing a brief history of Delaware’s corporate law and its current role in the American corporate legal system. I will then move to a robust …

Selective Flexibility: The Hidden Evolution Of Startup Corporate Law, Alvaro Pereira

Cardozo Law Review

This Article challenges the longstanding assumption that corporate law is largely irrelevant to non-listed companies and venture capital ( “VC”). Through a novel cross-country legal index covering twenty years and twelve jurisdictions, this Article shows that corporate laws have evolved through a process of “selective flexibility,” where certain legal barriers to VC deals are lifted, while others are stealthily preserved. For example, numerous reforms have enabled multiple-vote shares, but few have authorized the customization of board powers, limiting the universe of founder-investor agreements—and, ultimately, the development of startup ecosystems and VC markets.

Patients As Stakeholders, Isaac D. Buck

William & Mary Law Review

Once a provider of public support and charity, the American hospital is now a source of dividends for private actors. Profit interests have encroached on, and increasingly replaced, the publicly minded heroism of the American hospital, the central hub of a complex and disordered health care system. This new profit-first posture creates ill effects for the people who rely on health care delivery: those who work within it, those who are treated within it, and those who pay for it. When hospitals need to deliver for their corporate shareholders, legitimate questions arise about how much they are delivering for patients …

Uncertainty In Business Judgment: How A Divide Between Delaware's Judiciary And Legislature Has Changed Corporate Law, Andrea Safran

William & Mary Business Law Review

In response to controversial Chancery Court decisions, the Delaware Legislature rushed to amend the Delaware Code in order to reinforce the business judgment rule. As the foremost business court in the nation, every Chancery Court decision is thoroughly scrutinized by the corporate world, so when the court goes against normal business practices, corporations grow wary in their trust of the State. Thus ensues a scramble by the State to pass legislation that will protect corporate interests. With these recent decisions, however, the Chancery Court may have lost its footing, and Delaware could soon see a mass corporate exodus with the …

Corporate Jurisdiction Competition In The United States: Delaware’S Dominance And The Rise Of Segmented State Competition, Leonardo Lupiano

Student Scholarship

Delaware has long dominated the American market for corporate charters, supported by its flexible corporate statute, specialized Court of Chancery, deep body of precedent, and strong network effects. Recent developments, however, suggest that Delaware’s dominance is facing more serious pressure than it has in decades. High-profile reincorporations, growing concern over Delaware litigation, and new statutory and judicial developments in other states have created a more active market for corporate law.

This Article examines that shift through five representative jurisdictions: Delaware, Nevada, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. Delaware remains the baseline, but Nevada, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming now of er distinct models …

The Arbitration Web Ensnaring Every Consumer: The Next Evolution In Corporate Strategy To Compel Arbitration, Michael Conklin

Maine Law Review

This first-of-its-kind Article uses a novel hypothetical to explore the expanding role of compelled arbitration. The hypothetical involves numerous large corporations agreeing to cross-reference each other in their arbitration agreements, thus attempting to create a massive arbitration web ensnaring nearly every American and allowing corporations to compel arbitration against parties with whom they never interacted. This Article presents the case that courts might enforce such a scheme based on the judicial trend toward ever-expanding compelled arbitration jurisprudence, the docket-clearing incentives faced by judges, existing case law allowing some non-signatories to enforce arbitration agreements, the strong assumption in favor of arbitration, …

Governing Artificial Intelligence: A Dual-Board Solution To The Corporate Oversight Crisis, Harrison Carter

Brooklyn Law Review

Corporate governance structures have proven fundamentally inadequate for managing the unprecedented challenges of artificial intelligence development, as demonstrated by OpenAI's dramatic 2023 governance crisis and the broader failure of both traditional and hybrid corporate forms to balance massive capital requirements with public safety concerns. Current approaches create three critical failures: structural accountability gaps between boards and management, distorted power dynamics from concentrated capital needs, and an inability to enforce safety commitments against commercial pressure. While companies like Anthropic have attempted innovative private solutions through benefit corporation structures and specialized trusts, these voluntary mechanisms ultimately prove inadequate against the extraordinary pressures …

Corporate Governance As Bloodsport, Jeremy Kidd, George A. Mocsary

Pepperdine Law Review

The modern Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) movement promotes diversion of corporate assets from shareholders to “stakeholders.” This is done in the name of a corporate duty to society. But “successful” ESG efforts threaten the success of the corporate form by inviting rent-seeking. This conflict between ESG principles and established theories and norms of corporate law is difficult to resolve because corporate law lacks the tools needed to understand the type of collective decision-making that occurs in the corporate setting. This Article is the first to apply public choice economics—the economic study of collective decision-making—to corporate decision-making to identify the …
