This paper is the introductory chapter of Luca Enriques and Tobias Tröger (eds.), The Law and Finance of Related Party Transactions (Cambridge University Press: forthcoming). Its goal is to sketch out the individual chapters' contributions to the scholarly and policy debates on the adequate regulation of related party transactions (RPTs). For that purpose, we scope the issue by highlighting the principal costs and benefits of shareholder control, which allows both the implementation of entrepreneurial vision and various forms of rent-seeking. We next proceed by putting the challenges of regulating RPTs into the broader context of conflicts of interest and tunneling techniques. Against this background, we then turn to the main regulatory options available for legislators (independent/disinterested director approval, majority of the minority approval, ex post fairness review, and involvement of supervisory agencies), highlighting some of the key insights on each of them from individual chapters. Finally, we show how the chapters in the book can also inform European legislators who are currently in the process of implementing the revised Shareholder Rights Directive rules on RPTs.

Austrian as well as German company law exhibit only punctual regulation of Related Party Transactions. With the implementation of the second shareholder rights directive there are now e.g. provisions requiring board approval or disclosure of specific Related Party Transactions, applying only to a small fraction of transactions. Delaware on the contrary has comprehensive case law on Related Party Transactions. It seems the dangers of Related Party Transactions, i.e. conflicts of interest in the board and exploitation of the corporation and its shareholders have been pertinent in Delaware long before the European legislator saw the need for increased regulation. However, the legal strategies used to regulate Related Party Transactions in all three jurisdictions are similar.
