Does a de jure director of a company have a general right to see legal advice obtained by the company? What if the legal advice concerns the director and may have been prepared in contemplation of bringing or defending proceedings against them? There is no general right for a director to see legal advice obtained by a company. Whether it is appropriate for the director to do so in any particular situation depends on careful consideration of the directors鈥 statutory and fiduciary duties and the company鈥檚 constitution.

Insurance & Reinsurance analysis: The Court of Appeal has given a further COVID-19 business interruption judgment on two important issues. First, whether each insured company under a composite policy was entitled to a separate limit of indemnity or, as insurers contended, the limit was an aggregate limit applicable to all insureds collectively. The Court of Appeal held in favour of insureds on this point. Second, and considered for the first time by the Court of Appeal, whether insureds must give credit for furlough payments received during the pandemic when calculating their business interruption losses. The Court of Appeal held, on the wording of the policies in this case, that they did. The court鈥檚 decision on both issues will have significant implications for many businesses seeking to claim COVID-19 business interruption losses. Written by Josephine Higgs KC, 7 King鈥檚 Bench Walk.
