问题如下:

Which of the following mechanisms is most likely to protect minority shareholders?

选项:

A.Two-tier boards

B.Dual-class shares

C.Pre-emption rights

解释:

A is incorrect because two-tier boards is not a mechanismto protect the minority shareholders. At the most basic level, some countries,including Germany and the Netherlands, have two-tier boards with whollynon-executive supervisory boards overseeing management boards.

B is incorrect because dual-class shares typicallybenefits the founders and management, but not minority shareholders. A finalarea in which minority shareholders can feel exploited is through the mechanismof dual-class shares. Typically, one of the classes is restricted to thefounders of a company (or a limited group chosen early in a company’s life) whoreceive multiple votes when compared to the class of shares that subsequentshareholders can invest in, the ones that are typically more freely traded onthe stock market (and those issued freely as compensation to staff,particularly in the case of US technology businesses). It is also the casethat, management, which typically directly benefits from multiple voting rightsand often voting control, will feel less accountable to the broader shareholderbase, with whose interests they are less aligned.

C is correct because another key area for shareholderprotection is pre-emption rights. These rights ensure that an investor has theability to maintain its position in the company. Because these rights comebefore the prerogative of potential external investors, they are calledpre-emptive, and the existence of these rights is why a large equityfundraising by companies is often called a ‘rights issue’.

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


在这个问题中,我们需要确定哪种机制最有可能保护少数股东的权益。我们逐一看下每个选项:

A. 双层董事会(Two-tier boards)

双层董事会结构通常包括一个管理委员会和一个监事会。管理委员会负责公司的日常运营,而监事会则负责监督管理委员会的工作。这种结构在某些国家,如德国和荷兰,是常见的公司治理模式。虽然双层董事会可以提供一定程度的制衡,但它并不是专门设计来保护少数股东的权益的。相反,它更多地是为了确保公司管理层的决策受到适当的监督。因此,这个选项是不正确的


B. 双重股权结构(Dual-class shares)

双重股权结构是指公司发行两种或多种不同投票权的股票。通常,一种是A类股票,拥有一个投票权,另一种是B类股票,拥有多个投票权。这种结构通常有利于公司的创始人或管理层,使他们能够保持对公司的控制,即使他们不拥有多数股份。然而,这种结构可能会削弱少数股东的权力,因为他们持有的股票投票权较少。因此,这个选项也是不正确的


C. 预购权(Pre-emption rights)

预购权是股东的一项权利,它允许他们在公司发行新股份时,有权按其持股比例优先购买新股份。这种权利确保了现有股东能够维持他们在公司中的持股比例,从而保护了他们的权益。预购权是保护少数股东不被稀释的一种机制,因此这个选项是正确的


综上所述,预购权(Pre-emption rights)是最有可能保护少数股东权益的机制。
