Shareholders typically exercise their voting power during the general meetings of the company, in the form of resolutions passed at such meetings. For private companies, the expectation is that they will not hold meetings, but use written resolutions. This chapter considers the mechanisms for meetings for public and traded companies. The chapter discusses voting entitlement, proxies, and corporate representatives. It considers the main types of resolutions, especially written resolutions for private companies, as well as ordinary and special resolutions. Meeting procedures including notice and convening requirements are discussed. There is a detailed look at the important Duomatic principle of informal shareholder assent in place of a resolution.

AbstractIn part due to recent disclosures of large-scale tax evasion (e.g. Panama Papers), corporate tax avoidance has become a prominent public policy issue around the world. An increasing amount of research on this topic has focused on identifying the determinants of tax avoidance at the company and country level. Many newer studies examine differences in corporate governance as one of these determinants. However, this literature almost entirely neglects the role of board level employee representation (BLER), despite the fact that this form of ‘stakeholder governance’ is widespread in Europe. This paper addresses this gap in the literature by examining the relationship between BLER and tax avoidance at the company level. Two mechanisms are identified through which BLER might influence corporate tax behavior: 1) reduction in agency costs through monitoring and 2) the voting power of workers as board members to enter into coalitions with management and/or shareholders. Based on a sample of 2343 European listed companies between 2012 and 2017, this paper shows that companies with BLER have a higher effective tax rate (ETR) than companies without workers on the board. The analysis suggests that the ability to form coalitions through voting power is a more significant channel for influencing tax behavior than the monitoring mechanism. The policy implications are that governments should consider ‘stakeholder governance’ such as BLER as one measure supporting their efforts to combat tax avoidance.

Rivalry between the United States and Japan over Asian economic growth left its mark on the ‘personality’ of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The evolution of the ADB provides, therefore, interesting insights as regards the extent to which a principal-agent approach can be used to shed light on this regional development bank’s evolution. Usually, a principal-agent approach opposes the owner (principal) to the manager (agent). Competition observed in the ADB opposes less the principals to the agent than the principals with each other. The ADB Charter ensures regional members a majority of ‘voice’ in the Bank and that smaller members have a minimum of representation. Moreover, competition between the United States and Japan during the 1990s encouraged other member countries to counterbalance the leaders’ influence by increasing their share in voting power. China’s entry into the Bank from 1986 also contributed to diversifying the points of view among the member countries.
