论股东的知情权

股东的知情权基于股东利益的维护而产生。知情权不是一项单一的基本权利,而是股东质询权和查阅权的复合。知情权不是一项从属的权利,而是与股东的管理权和财产权相互独立的权利。我国《公司法》对股东知情权的规定甚少,立法应予完善。知情权的主体是公司股东,包括小股东、隐名股东和出资瑕疵股东。知情权的实现方式应当遵守程序规则。为了保护公司和其他不特定股东的利益,对知情权的行使应当有所限制。知情权的法律救济应当遵守诚实信用、禁止权利滥用原则。

On Shareholder's Right to Learn the Truth

Shareholder's right to learn the truth is based on protecting shareholder's interests. Right to learn the truth is not a single right but combination of right to address questions and right to consult, nor a subordinate right but it coexists with right of administration and right of property. Since in China, Law of Companies gives few regulations to the right, it should be improved in legislature. Subject of the right are company shareholders, including small shareholders, dormant partners and buying defective shareholders. Realization of the right should follow procedure rule. In order to protect the interests of the company and other unspecified shareholders, certain limitations should be given to the exercise of the right. Legal remedy of the right should follow the principles of being honest and refusing abuse of the right.
