Corporate Finance is an area of law which is obviously of significant practical
importance, but the academic analysis of this area of law has also been increasingly
recognised. This book provides a discussion of the most interesting theoretical and
policy issues in Corporate Finance law. It covers both the equity and debt sides of
Corporate Finance law, and seeks, where possible, to compare the two, considering
the desirability of each in various circumstances and pointing to areas of convergence
and overlap. The topics covered include: an overview of the financing options
available to companies; the relationship between debt and equity; legal capital;
contractual protection for creditors; proprietary protection for creditors; single and
multiple lenders; transferred debt; public offers of shares; the ongoing regulation
of the capital market; the regulation of debt; takeovers; schemes of arrangement
and private equity. Each chapter analyses the issues so as to enable the reader to
understand the difficulties, risks and tensions inherent in this area of law, and the
attempts made by the legislature and the courts, as well as the parties involved, to
deal with them. This book discusses areas where the law is uncertain, including some
difficult conceptual problems, and considers the present law critically, including
options for possible reform. It will be of interest to practitioners, academics and
students engaged in the practice and study of corporate finance law.
