Summary/Abstract: In this paper, the author analyzes relevant provisions of the applicable Company Act which define convening the session of the Shareholders’ Meeting by using the normative, comparative and partly legal history method. It has been determined that only shareholders could be members of the Shareholders’ Meeting, who are properly summoned to attend the sessions of the Meeting. The legal provision related to the invitation to attend the Meeting session, the legal possibility of refuting the decisions of the Meeting which was not convened pursuant to this Act and the company Statute, as well as the legal provisions on the place of convening the session justify the author’s decision to analyze these issues in more detail. Namely, the envisaged rules unambiguously link the imperative legal provisions to the dispositive decisions of competent authorities, where the imperative regulation of economic relations bears witness not only about the relevance of given relations but also about the interest of the state itself to establish the internal operation of economic entities on the principle of uniformity. In this paper, the author also considers the participation in session via electronic means of communication, which is a kind of novelty imposed by the information age and digital revolution.
