Chapter 9 in Corporate Restructuring and Governance in Transition Economies, 2007, pp 213-249 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Understanding the formal corporate structure and the legal rights of stakeholders is needed when examining the problems of corporate governance. In Russia, recent enhancements to the legal system have helped to alleviate the conflict between ownership and management, and the situation is improving. Economic studies on the legal structure of Russian firms, however, are not sufficient to date. Thus, this chapter aims to illuminate the legislative framework, with special attention to the governance mechanism of the joint-stock companies.
