Yan, M. ORCID: 0000-0002-3170-0582 (2024). Weighted Voting Rights Under China’s New Company Law. Journal of Business Law,

Abstract

This paper examines the revised voting regime under China’s new Company Law, which creates different classes of shares, deviating from its enshrined law of one share-one vote. The accompanying safeguards and limitations on protecting minority shareholders are critically discussed with an aim to identify areas for the future reform.
