Join us for a panel discussion hosted by Travers Smith with Victoria Bramall, Genna Marten and Emma Havas on the role and duties of directors of private equity portfolio companies, with a particular focus on:
- Typical statutory duties applicable to directors of companies in UK, US and Western Europe.
- Potential liability to directors, including some practical tips on how to mitigate risks/manage those duties, particularly in the context of the role of an Investor Director on a portfolio company board.
- Duties and responsibilities of directors that fall outside the statutory regime, including the role of a director of a B-Corp.
- How directors’ duties may change on or near insolvency with some tips on how to manage the inherent conflict as a consequence of being a representative of a shareholder on the board.
