A admissibilidade das ações de lealdade no ordenamento jurídico português

  • João Maria Araújo Ribeiro de Oliveira (Student)

Student thesis: Master's Thesis

Abstract

In this dissertation, we aim to investigate whether loyalty shares, aimed at rewarding and encouraging shareholder loyalty towards the Company, are admissible under Portuguese legal framework. We will scrutinize whether, in light of the reality of the large Portuguese limited liability companies by shares (“sociedades anónimas”), this would be an effective solution to address short-term strategies that are so often embraced by shareholders and whether the recent overhaul of the Portuguese Securities Code could be held as a decisive step towards the admissibility of loyalty shares. We will also tap the advantages associated with the possibility of loyalty shares constituting a complement to the remuneration of Directors.
