    English Court recognises sole director's decision-making powers
    2022-10-11

    The High Court has recently held that the appointment of administrators by a sole director of a company with unamended Model Articles was valid.  

    Background 

    The document allegedly appointing the administrators of the company was a standard set of board minutes, reportedly chaired by a man and recording that a quorum was present. In fact, there was no meeting, and the decision was taken alone by the sole female director.
