| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I researched an significance of shareholder derivative suits in corporate groups and civil liabilities of listed companies which disclosed fraudulent information. I made it clear that each of them was an important mechanism to deter corporate misconduct. But they have some problems about when directors or corporations are made liable and how their liabilities are enforced. I clarified many points we had to keep in mind when we were dealing with those problems. For example, I succeed in the attempts to clarify a condition for multiple derivative suits and a way to calculate an amount of damage the listed companies which disclosed fraudulent information have to be liable for.
