This new work explores the evolving challenges faced by directors and creditors in both corporate and insolvency contexts. Structured in five parts, it offers a rigorous yet practical examination of key legal developments and their implications for practice and policy. The volume opens with a foundational overview of the legal principles that shape the director-creditor relationship, before turning to the landmark Supreme Court decision in BTI 2014 LLC v Sequana SA and others [2022] UKSC 25. This pivotal case has reshaped the legal landscape, influencing how courts and practitioners approach limited liability, wrongful trading, transactional avoidance, and directors' duties—particularly the creditor duty and the definition of insolvency. Subsequent chapters broaden the scope to address contemporary issues beyond Sequana, many of which are relevant to both solvent and insolvent companies. Topics include fiduciary duties, directors' personal liability, fraudulent and wrongful trading, corporate sustainability, creditor vulnerability, and the growing impact of climate change litigation. The discussion then extends to a global scale, examining how Sequana has influenced legal thinking across jurisdictions including the EU, Australia, the US, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Canada. With a focus on both common law and civil law systems, the book offers a comparative perspective on global efforts to refine insolvency frameworks and harmonise corporate governance standards. Combining detailed legal analysis with practical insights, Directors and Creditors: Law and Liability is an essential resource for legal practitioners, academics, and policymakers navigating the complexities of modern corporate and insolvency law.
