Duty to act with due managerial care in the course of management of a joint stock company in the Czech Republic with regard to the regulation in Great Britain

in English Duty to act with due managerial care in the course of management of a joint stock company in the Czech Republic with regard to the regulation in Great Britain. This thesis deals with duties of members of board of directors, especially with the duty of care, skill and diligence. The aim of the thesis is to analyze in detail the duty of care, skill and diligence owed by the members of board of directors to the company. Another aim of the thesis is to compare a legal framework of duty of care, skill and diligence according to the commercial code (‚obchodní zákoník') with the legal framework of duty of care, skill and diligence according to the (new) civil code (‚občanský zákoník') and to predict whether the existing cases could still be applicable in the future. The last and perhaps the most significant aim of the thesis is to compare the Czech legal framework of the duty of care, skill and diligence with the English legal framework of the above mentioned duty. The english corporate law has been developing for centuries, thanks to which the comparative part of the thesis is not only a theoretical treatise, but also a stimulative inspiration for the Czech legal system de lege ferenda
