This book - by one of the leading British experts on company law - has been written specially for directors of companies and their professional advisors. It deals specifically with the Consolidated Companies Act 1985 and the Insolvency Act 1986 - both of which have increased the burden of responsability of company directors - and sets out all the ways in which a director may become personally liable either as a result of statute or court decisions.

Contents:
The legal status of directors; De facto directors, shadow directors and group directors; Directors' basic fiduciary duties; The judicial and statutory extension of directors' fiduciary duties; Directors' duties of skill and care; The termination and discharge of directors' duties; Directors' duties under the companies act; The enforcement of directors' statutory duties; Directors' duties and liabilities to a company's creditors; Litigation concerning directors' duties; Shareholders' remedies for unfair treatment and conclusions
