comparative Germany Official translation

German Stock Corporation Act

德国《股份公司法》

Germany's core statute for stock corporations, including share capital, capital measures, two-tier boards, supervisory-board oversight, shareholder powers, affiliated-enterprise rules, control agreements, and group-law creditor protection.

Use It For

Use this for share-capital, two-tier board, and shareholder-reserved-power comparisons. For Unit 7, use sections 15-19, 291-293, 308-317, and 319-322 as a comparative model for regulating corporate groups through organization-specific rules rather than only through ex post veil piercing.

Teaching Notes

German law helps students ask whether Chinese Article 23 is doing the work of a group-law regime, a creditor-remedy rule, or both.
