In our time is Company Law a remarkably unstable branch of Law. This situation is the outcome of a countless number of important legal reforms in everywhere. In spite of its integration in the realm of Private Law, the profound changes in contemporary Company Law are produced basically by the legislator. Spanish Company Law is a good example of this trend and the last contribution prepared to its modification is included in the preliminary Draft of Commercial Code, passed by the Spanish Government in 2015. The paper deals with the basic features of Draft's Companies regulation and its posible influence for the next evolution of Company Law. ; El Derecho de sociedades se ha convertido en una categoría jurídica inestable como consecuencia de las continuas reformas que experimenta en todos los ordenamientos jurídicos. A pesar de ser una rama del Derecho privado, la contribución más importante a esa modificación proviene del legislador. Así se pone de manifiesto en el Derecho español, donde una de las novedades más significativas en la materia viene constituida por el Anteproyecto de Código Mercantil, aprobado por el Gobierno español en 2015, que contiene una amplia y minuciosa regulación societaria. El trabajo expone los caracteres fundamentales de dicho texto y su posible relieve para la evolución futura del Derecho de sociedades.

Abstract
Despite the fact that the Spanish legal system continues without a specific regulation about the corporate groups, the recent legislative reforms are paid growing attention in some punctual matters. Namely the notion of groups is revised in the recent Amendment of Art. 42 Commercial Code in late 2003. So are the references to groups in some of the provisions of the new Bankruptcy Act of 9 July 2003. This legislation seems to clash with the orientations of the Forum Europaeum. Although it has not been reflected legislatively, the article takes into account the Proposal for a Corporation Code as well, which offers a specific and a complete regulation of groups, due to the great significance in coming set of laws.

Briefly, this section seeks to provide a remedy to a shareholder who complains that the affairs of a company are being conducted in a manner that was 'oppressive, unfairly discriminatory against, or unfairly prejudicial to a member or members'. ; peer-reviewed
