| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aims to explore the duties and liability of corporate management who are in positions analogous to fiduciaries in trust relationships in the UK and Australia. There has already been an accumulation of scholarly work in this area, but the introduction and development, along with the provisions of the above duties and liability framework in corporate statutes, has not been fully explained.
Based on fieldwork conducted in the UK and Australia, the study focuses on the background and the development of Equitable duties and remedies and examines the legislative process of statutory duties and remedies. The UK section was partly published as a journal article in 2014, but the current study further develops the theme by taking into account the outcome of a recent UK Supreme Court case (in 2014), while the Australian section is currently being prepared as an academic paper.
