Abstract
This paper is an outcome of joint research by the authors on corporate governance codes focusing on Asian jurisdictions. The authors are lawyers from various countries, including Europe, who participated in Watanabe’s courses on company law and security law at the Waseda University L.L.M. program (Asian Region Course). The target jurisdictions are mainly in Asia: China (mainland), which has now been revived as a superpower in the world; Hong Kong and Singapore, which have been the financial centers in Asia; South Korea, which has an interesting regulatory structure for the Code; and Japan, which is drawing attention after the second Code revision in June 2021. In addition, this study adds Germany, which has its own regulatory structure for the Code, for a more in-depth analysis from a comparative legal perspective. We have been keenly aware of this work as there is very little literature in this field that briefly describes the latest status and characteristics of each country's corporate governance code. In this sense, we hope that this study has some significance. (※Comparative law analysis will be added soon.)
