As a board member of a GmbH in Germany, I'm reviewing a large contract from a related party. I'm concerned about conflicts of interest and compliance with the German Corporate Governance Code. What steps are required to document the conflict, obtain proper approvals, and manage potential liability?

In the board resolution document you need to protocol your objection and potential dissenting vote. Proper approvals depend on the board statutes and the company bylaws. Liability may also be mitigated with a D&O insurance. For further questions please send me an email to hi (at) streiff (dot) law
