Abstract
The objective of this article is to identify the problems of joint responsibility of the parent company for the obligations of the subsidiary company and propose a solution to them. The author has used the analysis method while studying the legislation governing the joint responsibility of the parent company, its law enforcement practice and scientific literature on problems in this area. The experience of legal regulation of joint responsibility of the parent company under the obligations of the subsidiary company has been compared with the legal experience of the United States of America. Studying the conditions for holding the parent company liable for the obligations of a subsidiary, the author has concluded that at present, the Russian legislation defining the legal status of the parent companies is imperfect and needs to be changed. Accordingly, a new version of paragraph 2 of clause 2 of Article 67.3 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation has been proposed, as well as recommendations for the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.
