论公司机会规则的法律适用

On the Application of Corporate Opportunity Doctrine

摘要: 公司机会规则，作为源于英美判例法的一项主要公司法理论，是指禁止公司董事和高管人员将本属于公司的商业机会，为谋取个人私利而转归自己加以利用。此项规则经过近一个多世纪的积累发展，日益成熟，是“英美法上最为复杂的制度之一”。我国于2005年在公司法中正式引入“公司机会规则”，填补了一项法律空白，但如何将这一复杂的制度成功移植到我国法律体系，特别是在司法实践中如何运用这一规则，是我国理论界和司法界面临的重大课题。

Abstract: Corporate opportunity doctrine is one of the most important rules in corporation law of common law countries, and it purports to prohibit the directors and managers from getting illegal interest, by imposing them the duty of not usurping corporate opportunity. The “corporate opportunity doctrine”, one of the most complicated systems, traces back to the Anglo-American case law and it is much more developed through almost one century’s development. The “corporate opportunity doctrine” was introduced into the company law of our country in 2005, but it will be a big problem for the fields of judicature and law to apply the doctrine to judicatory practice.
