Die Arbeit befasst sich mit dem praxisrelevanten Thema der Ablösung von arbeitgeberfinanzierten Versorgungszusagen. Ähnlich wie die Anpassungen von staatlichen Rentensystemen stellen Veränderungen von betrieblichen Rentensystemen für Arbeitgeber eine enorme Herausforderung dar. Die Arbeit analysiert und systematisiert die formellen sowie die materiellen Voraussetzungen zur Anpassung von Versorgungszusagen aus Gesetz und Rechtsprechung. Zusammenfassend findet ein Ebenenvergleich zwischen den verschiedenen Rechtsgrundlagen und den Anforderungen der Rechtsprechung zur jeweiligen Ablösung. Hierauf aufbauend und mit einem Seitenblick nach Österreich zeigt die Arbeit auf, wie Arbeitgeber den durch den gesetzlichen Rahmen und die Rechtsprechung bestimmten Gestaltungsspielraum für eine flexible Ausgestaltung von Versorgungszusagen nutzen können und welche konkreten Flexibilisierungsinstrumente hierfür zur Verfügung stehen.

Die Arbeit befasst sich mit dem nationalen Crowdinvesting-Modell als Finanzierungsvariante für Start-ups. Auf Internet-Plattformen kann eine Vielzahl von Kleinanlegern in Start-ups investieren und an deren wirtschaftlichem Erfolg teilhaben. Mangels alternativer Kapitalgeber ermöglicht das Crowdinvesting-Modell Unternehmensfinanzierungen in der Frühphase der Gesellschaften. Die dabei geschlossenen Beteiligungsverträge sind regelmäßig als partiarische Nachrangdarlehen ausgestaltet und beinhalten angenäherte Regelungen zu klassischen Venture-Capital-Vereinbarungen von professionellen Wagniskapitalgebern. Der Autor untersucht den für das nationale Crowdinvesting-Modell relevanten Rechtsrahmen und kommt zum Ergebnis einer fehlenden rechtlichen Vereinbarkeit mit den Investmentvoraussetzungen von professionellen Wagniskapitalgebern bei Anschluss- oder Co-Finanzierungen.
