Last Updated: Dec 20, 2025
I'm a minority shareholder in an Italian joint-stock company. The board is considering a related-party contract with a vendor owned by a director. Which fiduciary duties apply (loyalty, care, conflicts of interest), what remedies exist for breaches, and how is enforcement handled under Italian corporate law?
