Abstract

The regulation of foreign listings have become an increasingly important issue. As issuers can now easily cross borders to gain access to foreign capital markets, jurisdictions have begun to work hard to entice foreign issuers to list on their exchanges. Especially for small markets such as Hong Kong and Taiwan, embracing foreign listings has become the inevitable route in order to boost their capital markets.

This Article is organized as follows: Part II provides an overview of the regulatory regimes of corporate governance for foreign issuers in the United States. and EU-namely, the United Kingdom and Germany, the EU's two major economies; Part III demonstrates how the developments of corporate law in the United States and EU's internal market can explain the United States and EU's regulatory regime for foreign issuers' corporate governance; Part IV draws on the lessons from the United States and EU, and critiques and reflects on Taiwan's current regulatory regime; and Part V concludes.
