Abstract

Spanish Companies regulation (in particular, Act 3/2009 on the structural modifications of corporations) allows for a simplified procedure of charter amendment in the case of transformation of corporations. In some cases, the simplification might imply a reduction in shareholders' and creditors' rights. This article critically appraises the Spanish rules and proposes a functional interpretation that preserves shareholders' and creditors' legitimate rights when corporations decide to transform.
