An Opportunity for a Sustainable System of Corporate Law and Governance in Latin America
from Part III - Corporate Law, Corporate Governance and Sustainability: Case Studies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 November 2019
This chapter analyses the Pacific Alliance – an economic bloc formed by Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru in 2011 – and its integrated stock exchange, the Mercado Integrado Latinoamericano. It contends that the Alliance has the potential to foster the transition toward a sustainable economy in Latin America, through a renewed system of corporate law and corporate governance. On the one hand, it asserts that Colombian Law 1901 of 2018, creating the Companies of Collective Benefit and Interest, initiated a healthy regulatory competition in corporate law among member states. On the other, it discusses alternatives to promote sustainable corporate practices through executive compensation, leveraging the legal convergence in corporate governance prompted by the integrated stock exchange. The Alliance’s economic strength and regional leadership further bolster its potential to bring about meaningful changes in the region.
