开曼群岛公司法最新修改_全文翻译

作为多年来热门的离岸公司注册地，包括阿里巴巴、瑞幸在内的诸多中概股公司，以及华润微电子等境外红筹企业均选择在开曼群岛设立公司，但实践中学界及实务界对开曼群岛公司法本身的了解和研究较少，更难以找到系统的学习资料。

有鉴于此，译者尝试在空闲时间对《开曼群岛公司法》进行英汉对照翻译，希望为自身及相关需求者进一步学习、理解和研究提供基础资料。但应当指出的是，仅有法条本身尚不足以理解法律，这也是下一步需要继续拓展的地方。

阈于诸多主观及客观因素，第一版译本尚有较多不足之处，但此次翻译的出发点主要即为抛砖引玉，因此这一目标算是勉强达成，唯期待后续通过自身不断学习与学友交流指正改正谬误，提升质量。

以下为《开曼群岛公司法》（2020年修正）的目录，全文翻译电子文本见文末链接。
