| Research Abstract |
1. This research starts from thinking that a stock company is a kind of property management making use of capital majority system. We can say now that the relationship between ownership and management has two aspects, that is, "the separation of ownership and management" and "the cooperation of (a part of ) ownership and management".
2. According to this theory, we can improve the monitoring system for the stock company drastically.
First, the object to be monitored should change from the management to the management-team.
This management-team means a team consisting of management and capital majority administrator appointing management. This management-team controls and manages the stock company.
Second, this theory leads to the neutral auditor.
This neutral auditor can play a broad and effective role of the monitoring function by cooperating with employees.
Finally, this theory can find the diversity and dynamism of the relationship between ownership and management.
The traditional theory thinks that the directors manage a stock company, and stockholders only monitor them. But, this research results teaches us that the management team should be formed flexibly to attain the maximization of the company profits. The Japanese company law is too rigid to establish corporate governance.
