Law for Directors

There have been a series of well-publicised corporate failures and collapses in Australia, the US, and Canada. These failures have drawn attention to the consequences--for companies, shareholders, capital markets, and directors--of directors failing to do their job. Law for Directors is a matter-of-fact statement of directors' responsibilities and liabilities. It clearly explains the corporate law and other areas of law that directors commonly have to confront in the course of their duties. There is also practical guidance on dealing with the regulators. The author, Mr. Geoffrey Gibson, has been advising the boards of public and private companies for many years and has written similar works for journalists and arbitrators.
