Short answer

The constitution itself is a statement of principles; legal force is established by carrying its provisions into the shareholders' agreement and the articles of association. We design every provision together with its “binding layer”.

The constitution itself is a statement of principles; legal force is established by carrying its provisions into the shareholders’ agreement and the articles of association. We design every provision together with its “binding layer”.

The “binding layer” reaches beyond the company documents. Succession-side provisions need their own instruments — wills or inheritance contracts, and marital-property agreements — to hold up, because a shareholders’ agreement cannot bind an heir or a spouse who never signed it. We match each principle to the instrument that actually makes it enforceable.
