TY - UNPD A1 - Baums, Theodor T1 - Corporate contracting around defective regulations : the Daimler-Chrysler case T2 - Institut für Handels- und Wirtschaftsrecht (Osnabrück): Arbeitspapiere ; Nr. 68 T2 - Institut für Bankrecht (Frankfurt, Main): Arbeitspapiere ; Nr. 68 N2 - The article describes the legal structure of the Daimler-Chrysler merger. It asks why this specific structure rather than another cheaper way was chosen. This leads to the more general question of the pros and cons of mandatory corporate law as a regulatory device. The article advocates an "optional" approach: The legislator should offer various menus or sets of binding rules among which the parties may choose. (JEL: ...)
