Art. 2:11 BW, doorgeefluik van bestuurdersaansprakelijkheid. Hoe diep kan een bestuurder vallen?

Section 2:11 of the Dutch Civil Code (DCC) stipulates that the liability of a legal person in its capacity of the director of another legal person is also jointly and severally attached to anyone who is a director of that other person when the liability arises. The central research topic is what the scope of Section 2:11 DCC is. The greater the scope of Section 2:11 DCC, the bigger the chance that the director or directors “behind” the legal person-director or a chain of legal person-directors are liable or jointly liable. The aforementioned research topic is divided into three sub-topics, namely what the personal scope of Section 2:11 DCC is (what “kind” of directors does the section apply to?), what the normative scope of that section is (what kinds of liabilities does the section apply to?) and what the international scope of that section is (to what extent does Section 2:11 DCC refer to foreign legal person-directors?).
