In this article, the author draws attention to the relevance of the problem of resolving

corporate conflicts. Today we can talk about the serious reform of corporate legislation being

carried out in Russia, which affected both the substantive and procedural law norms. As the

most significant in the corporate legislation, it should be noted the introduction of changes

regulating the activities of corporate education related to the execution of civil law transactions

(Federal law of 3 July 2016 No. 343-FZ “On Amendments to the Federal Law ‘On Joint Stock

Companies’, and the Federal law ‘On Limited Liability Companies’ Regarding the Regulation

of Major Transactions and Interested-Party Transactions”, effective from 1 January 2017).

Such changes undoubtedly affected the procedural peculiarities of the consideration of this

category of corporate disputes. The author analyzes the procedural peculiarities of considering

derivative claims on corporate disputes on the example of claims challenging transactions,

gives examples of scholars’ positions on this issue and criticizes existing approaches in the

literature, reviews regulation by legislation, conducts a comparative analysis of previously

existing and current legislation, and also gives an overview.

Keywords: civil procedure; corporate disputes; derivative claims; reform of corporate law;

claims on challenging transactions.
