The Enforcement of Directors' Duties in Britain and Germany; A Comparative Study with Particular Reference to Large Companies
ISBN: 9783039100583 / Angielski / Miękka / 406 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The power to control litigation in the company s name is normally vested in the board of directors.

In such a situation, the board s decision whether or not to litigate is potentially tainted because the wrongdoers are part of the decision-making process. The board as a whole is therefore an unsuitable decision-making body and the following question arises: who should decide whether it is in the company s interest to initiate litigation against the alleged wrongdoers? There are a number of...
