论公司章程自治的界限

On the Limits of Corporation Bylaws Autonomy

公司章程自治是私法自治在公司法领域的表现,但公司章程自治绝非不受限制的自由,由于大股东的滥权和内部人控制,公司法必须基于公平正义目标和效率目标对章程自治加以限制。公司章程自治的界限可以用几个标准相对确定,比如有限公司、不上市的股份公司的自治范围应广于上市的股份公司,但不应生搬硬套。我国公司法对公司章程自治界限的规范比较妥当,但实践中需要关注的核心在于当公司法没有明确规定时,如何准确把握自治事项的范围。

The corporation bylaws autonomy is the demonstration of private law's autonomy in the areas of corporate law.But corporation bylaws autonomy is not unfettered freedom.Because of the existence of the big shareholder's abuse of power and inside party's manipulation,the corporation bylaws autonomy should be restricted with the goal of fairplay,just and efficiency by corporate law.The limits of corporation bylaws autonomy can be fixed with several standards relatively.For example,the autonomy ranges of limited company,joint-stock non-listed company should be wider than the joint-stock listed company.But the standard should be applied flexibly.The limits of corporation bylaws autonomy is proper within Chinese Corporate Law,but the more important thing is to fix the range of the autonomy in practice accurately when there is no clear regulation in the company law.
