Reviews
'This remarkable book is comparative corporate law at its best. Alan Koh combines a thorough analysis of four key jurisdictions with high-level theory and a legislative proposal. The book reveals surprising similarities and differences across countries whose closely-held business structures have very different legal and historical roots.' Martin Gelter, Professor of Law, Fordham University School of Law
'Alan Koh's Shareholder Protection in Close Corporations goes beyond the black letter laws of Germany, UK, US and Japan, offering readers rich accounts of how the withdrawal remedies in these jurisdictions function in their respective domestic context, providing ample suggestions for jurisdictions wishing to improve their close corporation laws.' Gen Goto, Professor of Law, Graduate Schools for Law and Politics The University of Tokyo
'Alan Koh has delivered a comparative corporate law masterpiece. After reading this Book, it seems obvious that every academic, policymaker, and lawyer who has an expertise in company law must understand 'withdrawal remedies'. However, prior to this Book, the term never even existed - making it essential reading for everyone interested in company law and a model of comparative legal scholarship.' Dan W. Puchniak, Professor of Law, Yong Pung How School of Law, Singapore Management University
