家族企業公司治理爭訟案例分析與解決之道

家族企業長久以來一直是台灣社會的主流經營型態，也在台灣過去數十年來的經濟發展，扮演了極為重要的角色。過去家族企業憑藉其特殊資產（例如家族聲望、人脈資源、經營能力等等），往往能在商場上脫穎而出，甚至進而進入資本市場取得大規模投資挹注，成為社會矚目的大型企業，因而受到社會與法律更多的矚目與規範。台灣家族企業的發展在兩岸三地雖然起步較早，也逐漸邁向接班的階段，理應在公司治理方面有相當成熟度。但在近十年來，家族企業相關違反公司治理的法律爭議案件仍不斷發生，包括財報不實、內線交易、背信以及其他違法經營誠信（例如製造銷售黑心商品）的爭議，導致對於大型企業有興起「去家族化」的反對聲浪。此外，家族企業接班計畫不慎順遂，家族內鬨的爭議更是屢見不鮮，甚至進而影響公司治理的遵循，損及投資大眾權益。可見時至今日，家族企業對於公司治理的遵循觀念與實際作為，容有研討改善之必要。據此，本論文於研究方法上採取案例分析，透過司法個案的網羅與研究，對於近十年來家族企業的違法類型與原因做出歸納與分析，並藉由個案進一步探討相關細節，以提出家族企業在公司治理方面應該有的遵循方向與具體措施。同時也參考主管機關對於公司治理所倡議的相關指標，對於家族企業在公司治理各個構面的加強方向提出建議，包括獨立董事制度、資訊揭露義務、內控內稽制度、企業社會責任等面向。除了藉此避免家族企業繼續發生類似違法案例外，也希望透過家族治理與公司治理的融合與併進，讓公司治理在家族企業也能發揮相關興利的作用，以達成家族企業基業長青的目標。
