China’s company law draws on the shareholder proposal rights system as the stock market moves towards internationalization. All previous legal amendments have focused on reducing the shareholding ratio of proposals in order to ensure that the rights and interests of minority shareholders can be recognized. However, the specific and detailed operational procedures and regulations regarding the implementation of shareholder proposal rights are vague, which undermines the goals of its system setting. Judicial interpretation could be a remedy for the legislation deficiencies. Although legislators have given shareholders more autonomy in the exercise of their proposal rights, in the face of the special share structure of Chinese listed companies, and that the powers imposed on the shareholders meetings play an irreplaceable role in the company’s business decisions, in practice the proposal rights are still controlled by the controlling shareholders and it’s difficult for minority shareholders to exercise their shareholder proposal rights. |
