Acknowledgements

The University of Oxford is the place where we met and without which our discussions about the interactions between antitrust and corporate law would never have happened. We are grateful to all those who generously supported our research: professors, librarians, university and college staff and last but not least all our friends.

We would like to thank Rica Papa for her excellent editing and research support.

We are also grateful to the Ragnar Söderbergs Stiftelse whose support helped both of us at different times to reduce our teaching load and focus on this research.
