This article deals with the special development of the company (or rather corporate) law in Ukrainian legal system. The current legislation does not set the concept of corporation. As a result, the consept «corporation» is the center of the scientific discussions. Judicial practice forms different conceptions of the concept «corporation» also. At the same time, the concept «corporation» is the general element of the company law development in the future. The legal concept of the corporate relationships forms one their general sign only. The object of these relationships is the corporate rights. The form of the legal entity predetermines the maintenance of the corporate rights. Thus, the list of subjects is the criterion for the corporate nature of the relationships. The maintenance of the concept «corporation» is different in the world legal systems. Thus, the implementation of this concept into our legal system is the difficult process. Being in past the post social state, Ukraine did not have the company (or corporate) law. The modern Ukrainian legislation has a high level of dynamics. It adapts to the necessities of modern society. All mentioned above circumstances need special criteria. Such criteria should form the maintenance of the concept «corporation». They are the most difficult problem. The main reasons of this situation are: the existence of two codes – Civil Code and Commercial Code; the existence of a lot of special legal acts. As a result, there are a lot of ways for understanding of the concept «corporation» in Ukrainian science: from some forms of the companies to all legal entities. The corporate relationships have got one general sign – the special legal connection between legal entity and it’s membership. Such connection is the nature of the corporation. The scientists formed a lot of signs of the corporation. For example, general social aim, association of persons and capitals, existence of property and non property rights for participants. The most of these signs are in all legal entities. At the same time, mentioned above list includes one special sign — the existence not only non property rights, but property rights too. The participants of the non-entrepreneurial legal entities have not property rights. It is not exists the property connection between the non-entrepreneurial legal entity and participants.

The article analyzes using the normative and systematic methods, as well as analysis and synthesis, the content of the statements of Constitution of the Kyrgyz Republic, Civil Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic «About Normative Legal Acts of the Kyrgyz Republic», the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic «On the Regulations of the Jogorku Kenesh of the Kyrgyz Republic» and the works of the legal scholars. It examined the provisions of laws adopted for general regulation and concludes they are serious problems, because of them there is a "blurring" of the contour of the legislation on legal entities in the article. The publication supports the opinion of the authors of the Concept for Development, according to which the regulation of the status of legal entities in the civil legal field can be characterized by a set of the laws and regula-tions in force in the Kyrgyz Republic, which do not always correspond to each other, as well as to the Civil Code. The low legal and technical level and ineffectiveness in practice are also shown by some adopted laws. It noted the Civil Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, adopted on May 8, 1996, created the new foundation for the regulation of legal entities, which was supplemented by many new laws over the next decades in the article. The authors come to the conclusion the fairly honest assessment can be applied to the established regulation – that with the main vector of development of the Concept of Civil Legislation in Kyrgyzstan, in general, there is an economic, social and well-grounded the logic and generally justifiable modern civil law in relation to legal entities. But at the same time, for many problems, correct solutions have not yet been found and no efficiency ratings have been given.

Abstract The propagation of de facto companies in the Organization for the Harmonization of Corporate Law in Africa’s (OHADA) Uniform Act on Company Law is so evident that it cannot be neglected. Some are permitted by the legislator (joint ventures) and others impose themselves (sociétés de fait and sociétés créées de faits). Contrary to other fields of law that reject factual situations, the OHADA Uniform Act on Company Law receives de facto companies and submits them to rules naturally meant for legal companies or legal entities. The purpose of this article is to determine the position of the OHADA Company Law with regard to the invasion of company law by de facto companies. A study of the Uniform Act on Company Law has revealed that de facto companies are recognized and treated as legal entities. We believe that the essence of this recognition is linked to the OHADA legislator’s desire to attain his or her objectives—namely, to secure business relations that can only be possible through the protection of the business, the interest of its partners, and even the interest of third parties.

Corporate law and corporate culture are a set of means of multidirectional influence on the efficiency of corporate legal entities, using the means of generating the effects of influence on efficiency in general, affecting specific numerical indicators of activity. In addition, corporate law regulates the relations that may arise during the creation, implementation and termination of economic activity, determines the means, forms and structure of the organization. The purpose of the article is to determine the features and basic principles by which corporate law and corporate culture form models of behavior that help achieve goals and optimize certain processes in the activities of corporate legal entities. The research methodology is based on the methods of logical analysis. In addition, the study used the method of critical analysis of scientific literature and practical experience. The results of the study allowed us to consider corporate culture and corporate law as specific means of modeling staff behavior or management. They are such tools that form a scientific novelty and allow to achieve such an image of staff interaction that is acceptable for the efficiency of corporate legal entities.

The article considers topical issues related to civil law protection and protection of the business reputation of a legal entity in Ukraine. The right to business reputation belongs to a special group of civil relations, which requires scientific study and analysis, given that there is still no legislative enshrinement of the concept of business reputation of a legal entity in the Civil Code of Ukraine. And in the time of constant socio-economic development, the relevance of the definition and legal regulation of civil relations in the field of business reputation of legal entities is significant and important because business reputation is a certain assessment of the legal entity, based on conclusions about business qualities and moral personality, which are closely related to the activities of the business entity and their compliance with the requirements of the law and the proper performance of contractual obligations to partners. The purpose of the article is to analyze, compare and study the foreign experience of the European Union to determine the optimal concept of business reputation, and provide suggestions on how to solve existing problems of protection of business reputation in violation of the Internet in our country. During the study of the issue, the basic concepts of business reputation contained in the regulations of Ukraine were analyzed. It is established that the civil legislation does not contain a definition of the term «business reputation of a legal entity», which in turn complicates the process of legal protection and protection of the business reputation of business entities. Equally important is the issue of protection against damage to business reputation on the Internet, which now affects almost every aspect of modern society. Protecting business reputation on the Internet is significantly complicated by the lag in the development of Ukrainian legislation from the realities of information technology development. If there are more or less clear ways to protect the infringed personal non-property right in traditional print media, television, then there is virtually no special regulation of relations and protection of the law on the Internet. In conclusion, we note that at the legislative level, namely in the Civil Code of Ukraine there is no legal regulation of protection and protection against violations of the business reputation of legal entities on the Internet. The problem of implementing the mechanism of protection of business reputation of a legal entity in the courts of Ukraine is relevant and unresolved and as a result requires further scientific study.
