Description
Legislative change and case law development has had a substantial impact on the continuing rapid development of the law governing the disqualification of directors. In addition, there have also been recent far-reaching changes in the law of bankruptcy, involving a new regime of bankruptcy restrictions for those bankrupts who have proved to be irresponsible, reckless or otherwise culpable.
Directors' Disqualification and Bankruptcy Restrictions presents an up-to-date picture of law and practice, examining the nature and purpose of the disqualification and bankruptcy restriction regimes, and explaining what the courts are looking for when deciding whether to disqualify or impose bankruptcy restrictions. It incorporates the key changes resulting from the Insolvency Act 2000 and the Enterprise Act 2002 while also considering the impact of other legislation such as the Human Rights Act 1998 and the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
