In the UK, whether an individual is personally setting up a company, joining a corporate board, or reaching director level via an internal promotion, one will need to be aware of the legal implications that are attached to the role as a company director. These are known as directors' duties, some of which are codified in the UK's Companies Act 2006. However, these codified duties are merely the tip of the legal iceberg of which directors have to be aware. There are numerous other duties, ranging from maintaining proper accounts, making returns to the UK's Registrar of Companies, and not trading the company after the point where an insolvent liquidation beckons. This book distills the rules into layman's language by looking at the role of the company director. It uses a question and answer format, such as: "I've just been appointed as a director, what legal formalities do I need to comply with?" Or, "I want to borrow money from my company to buy myself a new car. Can I do this and, if so, how?" Or, "I want to defer my dividend, how do I do this?" Contents include: Incorporation * Appointment and Formalities * People Who Cannot Be Directors * The Contract of Employment * Termination of a Directorship * The Capitalization of the Company * Articles and Shareholder Agreements * What Does the Board Do? * Rights of Members * Directors' Dealings with Their Companies * The Codified Duties of Directors * Corporate Governance * Meetings * Cyber Security.

Directors' liabilities have been a key concern in boardrooms since the various high-profile corporate failures in Europe and the United States over the past two decades, when regulation increased and shareholders' and companies' rights to bring civil claims were extended. The current financial crisis will inevitably bring with it greater risks and challenges for directors. There is an increasingly aggressive environment for civil claims, fuelled by insolvencies, shareholders' pressure and public outcry. The attention of the regulators is also ever more sharply focussed on directors' conduct. directors are understandably looking closely at the protection available to them, through both indemnification and directors' and officers' insurance. The exposures faced by directors and the extent to which indemnification and insurance may provide protection vary significantly around the world. This comprehensive second edition features contributions by leading experts on the important aspects of directors' liability, the protection available to directors and the risks of doing business in multiple jurisdictions. New to the second edition are chapters on China, the Czech Republic, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, Slovakia, South Korea and the United Arab Emirates. In addition to civil claims and indemnification, each chapter now includes commentary on regulatory and criminal liability. Particular focus is placed on the impact of the credit crisis. There is also a new section dealing with regulatory issues surrounding global directors' and officers' programmes and their ability to provide cover in all intended jurisdictions. Unique in its approach, this forthcoming second edition is a powerful tool in assisting directors, officers, in-house counsel and the private practice laywers advising them to make well-informed judgements about the risks they are taking.
