'Company Succession and Fiduciary Duty. Non-Voting and Silent Partnerships as Instruments of Succession Planning under Corporate Law - A German-Italian Legal Comparison': The paper compares family company structures. The aim of the study is to enable the successors of a previously active partner to be integrated into the company and thus participate in its profits and losses without being granted operational co-determination rights. The paper focuses on a limited partnership without corporate presentation for the fiduciary management of silent partnership shares. The duties as shareholders are therefore subject to private autonomy through a family constitution.
