This chapter examines the internal mechanisms surrounding the protection of shareholder rights in FHCs, focusing on how they deal with the protection of shareholder rights in the face of the opportunities and challenges presented by new technologies in jurisdictions beyond China. In this chapter, two technologies, blockchain and AI, have gained widespread attention in corporate law. Specifically, blockchain and AI provide new solutions for the protection of shareholder rights in FHCs. Primarily, blockchain technology improves the rights to vote and information for shareholders, increases the transparency and security of shareholder engagement, optimises agency costs, and reduces the threat posed by insider control. In addition, AI technology can provide data standards for ongoing board evaluation and enhance the effectiveness of board evaluation by improving transparency standards. However, new technologies also pose some challenges to the internal governance of shareholder rights protection in FHCs. The challenges arise both from within the company and from the limitations of the technology itself.

摘要

This chapter examines the internal mechanisms surrounding the protection of shareholder rights in FHCs, focusing on how they deal with the protection of shareholder rights in the face of the opportunities and challenges presented by new technologies in jurisdictions beyond China. In this chapter, two technologies, blockchain and AI, have gained widespread attention in corporate law. Specifically, blockchain and AI provide new solutions for the protection of shareholder rights in FHCs. Primarily, blockchain technology improves the rights to vote and information for shareholders, increases the transparency and security of shareholder engagement, optimises agency costs, and reduces the threat posed by insider control. In addition, AI technology can provide data standards for ongoing board evaluation and enhance the effectiveness of board evaluation by improving transparency standards. However, new technologies also pose some challenges to the internal governance of shareholder rights protection in FHCs. The challenges arise both from within the company and from the limitations of the technology itself.
