Details

Twenty Years of European Company Law is a book appearing 20 years after the journal 'European Company Law'’s first issue was launched in 2004, which jumped to prominence as a leading resource for European companies and their lawyers and for enterprises worldwide with business interests in Europe, a role it has held to the present day. This unique book celebrates this anniversary with contributions from renowned legal experts in company law, securities law, and corporate governance.

The contributions – all of them characterized by the concise and pragmatic approaches for which the journal itself is widely appreciated – cover the following European company law issues:

sustainability
environment, social, and governance matters
loyalty shares
the proposed Listing Act
cross-border mergers
shareholders’ rights and activism
company groups, and
digitization.

An interview with journal founders Steef Bartman and Cees de Groot on the inception and development of the journal and its ongoing relation to European company law in a broader sense has been included in this book.

More than a testament to the front-and-centre presence of 'European Company Law' in developing European company law and corporate governance over the past 20 years, this book continues the journal’s aim to inform practitioners and be of interest to academics and students in the field. It is a must-have for those working in European company law, either in corporate practice as legal professionals, advisors, or academics.
