Public Takeover Bids: The Legal Framework

Gioacchino Amato and Stefano Torregiani

Chapter 8 in Italian Banking and Financial Law, 2015, pp 144-164 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The Italian regulatory framework for listed companies is oriented at the compliance with two principles, both having constitutional relevance: the protection of shareholders (descending from the protection of savings, laid down by Art. 47 of the Italian Constitution) and the efficiency and transparency of the market in corporate control and the capital market (in this respect, the freedom to conduct private businesses, protected by Art. 41 of the Italian Constitution is applied in a broader sense — in the light of the modern reinterpretation of the provision oriented at implementing EU regulatory directives — as the need to create efficient and competitive markets).1
