Duties and Responsibilities of Directors and Company Secretaries in New Zealand (4th edition)

Book excerpt: It has never been more important for directors and management to have a clear understanding of directors' duties. Not only do we have a new, empowered, regulator in the form of the Financial Markets Authority, but the Courts are generating new case law, in the wake of the global financial crisis and finance company failures. This new edition of Duties and Responsibilities of Directors and Company Secretaries in New Zealand sets out in a clear and concise manner the duties imposed by law on directors and includes new commentary on the evolution of the interpretation by the courts and the regulators of these matters. Comprehensive indexes, cases and statute tables ensure relevant information is easily located.
