There is still a debate on whether the controlling shareholders’ fiduciary duty should be established in the legal circle of China, but the legislation tends to impose more restrictions on the behavior of the controlling shareholder, so as to realize the transformation of the controlling shareholders’ fiduciary duty from theory to system to a certain extent. Although the divarication on whether all shareholders should bear the fiduciary duty without distinction, there is a general consensus among academic circles that at least the controlling shareholders of the company should bear the fiduciary duty. To realize the balance of interests among shareholders, the controlling shareholders’ fiduciary duty is based on the position of shareholders as owners of the company. The conflict of interests between the controlling shareholder and the company or other company participants can not be avoided, which is the root cause of controlling shareholders’ fiduciary duty. In addition, the non controlling shareholders’ trust in the controlling shareholders, prohibition of abuse of rights, and inherent defects of the company contract contribute to it likewise. As far as the legal application of controlling shareholders’ fiduciary duty is concerned, being established in the market economy and judicial practice of China, based on the "interpretation doctrine," and combined with the "legislative doctrine," the specific application scheme of the duty of diligence, the duty of loyalty and the "duty" of good faith should be determined.
