Your decisions as a company director matter
When you make a business decision as a company director, you must, amongst other things, ensure that you:
-
make the decision in good faith and for a proper purpose.
-
do not have a material personal interest in the decision and make it in the best interests of the company.
-
find out and assess how any decision will affect your company’s business performance, especially if it involves a lot of the company’s money or could have a material impact on the company's reputation.
-
keep informed about your company’s financial position and performance, ensuring your company can pay its debts on time.
-
get trusted professional advice when you need assistance to make an informed decision.
-
make full and frank disclosure about any material personal interests you do have.
There are penalties and consequences – including civil penalties, compensation proceedings and criminal charges – if you, as a company director, fail to comply with your obligations under law.
