Creditor Protection in Private Equity-Backed Leveraged Buyout and Recapitalisation Practices
Private equity-backed leveraged buyout (LBO) and leveraged recapitalisation practices have been on the rise since the early 1970s when the LBO model was first invented. They continue to play a major role for investors for their less transparent and less bureaucratic investment models outside of capital markets, where financial regulations become tighter following the financial crisis of 2008 affecting global capital markets in a chain reaction. Private equity-backed LBOs and leveraged recapitalisations continue to be popular investment models, however they carry risks both at the target company level and on a macroeconomic level due to the interconnectedness of these investments with global ...

Jouer Selon Les Regles Du Jeu - Playing by the Rules of the Game - Spielen Nach Den Spielregeln
Games form an integral part of life and the rules that determine how they are to be played provide us with rich insights into the specific nature of cultures. Comprising theoretical, philosophical, and legal discussions, the contexts of game playing are comprehensively examined in essays which range widely through time and space. In focussing on the topic of game playing this volume of essays - which stems from a Transcultura symposium on the transcultural key-concept of "the rules of the game" - engages in a fresh way with the field of sports as a unique and yet shared cultural phenomenon.
Legal Capital in Europe
Europe has known very different systems of company laws for a long time. These differences do not only pertain to the board structures of public companies, where single-tier and two-tier structures can be distinguished, they also pertain to the principles of fixed legal capital. Fixed legal capital is not a traditional ingredient of English and Irish company law and had to be incorpo-rated into these legal systems (only) for public limited companies according to the Second European Company Law Directive of 1976. Both jurisdictions have never really embraced these rules. Against this background, the British Accounting Standards Board (ASB) and the Company Law Centre at the British Institute o...

Untreue durch Cash-Pooling im Konzern
Der Tatbestand der Untreue gehört zu den Risiken der Personen, die Leitungsmacht in Kapitalgesellschaften ausüben. Die BGH-Entscheidungen im Fall «Bremer Vulkan» haben den Blick auf eine potentielle Untreuerelevanz von konzernweiten Cash-Pooling-Systemen gelenkt. Ausgangspunkt sind die gesellschaftsrechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen für den Abzug von Liquidität aus dem Vermögen einer Kapitalgesellschaft. Auf dieser Grundlage erfolgt eine nach Konzernart und Rechtsform differenzierende Auseinandersetzung mit der Frage, ob die Leitungsorgane des herrschenden Unternehmens gegenüber den Tochtergesellschaften den Tatbestand der Untreue verwirklichen können. Schwerpunktmäßig werden Bestand u...
Die Personengesellschaft im Konzern
Was kann die Organisation des Konzerns besser als der Schuldvertrag? Zur Konzerneinbindung einer Personengesellschaft als abhängiger Gesellschaft kann es vor allem kommen, wenn ein Unternehmensgesellschafter maßgeblichen Einfluß auf deren Geschäftsführung erlangt. Die Konzerneinbindung einer Gesellschaft setzt bei dieser eine Instrumentalisierbarkeit im Konzerninteresse und daher eine rechtliche Verselbständigung von den Personengesellschaftern voraus. Dem stehen das Schutzbedürfnis der Minderheitsgesellschafter sowie der Gläubigerschutz entgegen. Brigitte Haar erschließt die zugrundeliegenden Anreizstrukturen und setzt sie zur juristischen Dogmatik des Personengesellschaftsrechts in Bezug. Die Personengesellschaft im Konzern erweist sich als Testfall für die allgemeinere Frage nach dem Spannungsverhältnis zwischen den Grenzen einer organisationsrechtlichen Verselbständigung und der Privatautonomie der Personengesellschafter.
