Directors are personally accountable for a great deal. Our clear, actionable guides help you understand and meet your responsibilities, from day-to-day duties to the situations that carry the greatest risk.
Your legal duties as a director
Company law sets out what every director must do. Our guides explain the statutory directors’ duties, including promoting the company’s success and avoiding conflicts, in plain, practical terms.
Filing and reporting obligations
Missing a deadline can mean penalties or worse. We cover the accounts, confirmation statements and other filings you are responsible for, and how to keep the company in good standing.
Directors’ loans and personal liability
The tax rules on directors’ loan accounts trip many people up. Our guidance explains how they are taxed, how to avoid the common traps, and the circumstances where directors can become personally liable.
Insolvency and personal liability
Directors face their greatest exposure when a company is in difficulty. Our guidance explains your duties as solvency comes under pressure, the risks of wrongful and fraudulent trading, and the steps to take to protect yourself and your creditors if the worst happens.
Lead with confidence
Written by specialists as part of the Lefebvre Group, our guides give directors dependable answers when the responsibility is theirs.
