First published in 2006, Understanding Chinese Company Law covers the major topics in the area of company law in this fast-changing country. This third edition has incorporated the discussions on new laws and regulations that have sprung up over the past few years, including the China Company Law Amendment 2013 and the new Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622). In this new edition, besides offering an in-depth study of the 2013 Company Law, Gu Minkang addresses many new issues such as the zero capital system, shareholders’ right to know and right to profits, and a legal person’s human rights. The comparison between the Chinese and Hong Kong company laws is also updated accordingly.

This comprehensive and up-to-date presentation of Chinese company law will be of value to all who are involved in business with and in China and their legal advisors, and to students of Chinese company law.
