“…Taking a theoretical approach, model the impact of individual takeover regulations, such as the mandatory bid rule and the equal bid rule, on the efficiency of capital markets. Martynova and Renneboog (2011a) and Goergen et al (2005) document how in the period 1990-2005 countries across Europe have caught up with the UK towards the AngloAmerican system of corporate governance when improving the legal position of shareholders. In their empirical examination of cross-border takeovers in the period -2001, Martynova and Renneboog (2008b find some evidence of a positive effect of shareholder protection on targets and an insignificant one on bidders.…”

“…Different legal jurisdictions impose a diverse sort of constraints to reduce (or to enhance) the opportunism among the multiple constituencies of the firm (Aguilera and Jackson, 2010). Due to political and economic development, countries have made changes to their corporate legislation over the years (Martynova & Renneboog, 2011). Whilst substantial changes have been reported in different countries, it seems to exist two distinct legal groups of CG: common law and civil law.…”

“…Several authors (e.g. La Porta et al, 2000;Farolfi & Ciani, 2007;Martynova & Renneboog, 2011) agree on the fact that in the US (shareholder-based system) the main objective of corporate law is to protect corporate investors from being expropriated by the firm's management. In contrast, the systems prevailing in most European and Asian countries (stakeholder-based systems), the expropriation of investors by the management are typically prevented via monitoring by the firm's large shareholders, creditors or employees such that there is less need to address the problem at the regulatory level.…”

“…Утицај регулације на корпоративне активности све чешће је предмет ис-траживања, али упркос томе, не постоји генерални консензус о најбољем начину корпоративне регулације (Martynova & Renneboog, 2011) и ко би, у ствари, требало да буде одговоран за поштовање транспарентности.…”

“…Из перспективе предузећа се поштовање закона такође асоцира са пове-ћаним трошковима, тако да предузећа размишљају о односу између бене-фиција транспарентности и цијене поштовања закона (Martin & Combs, 2010). Код добровољних кодекса и стандарда често је заступљен принцип "придржавај се или објасни", за који се сматра да нуди поузданији квалитет транспарентности (Martynova & Renneboog, 2011).…”
