Abstract:
The law of fiduciaries has been developed in an unprincipled manner. Consequently, the common law lacks a clear idea of the nature of the fiduciary relationship, the justification for fiduciary duties, and the purpose of fiduciary remedies. However, according to the author a principled theory of fiduciary liability may be derived from the common law. The focal point is the recent decision of the Supreme Court of Canada in Galambos v. Perez. The theory of liability suggested by Galambos and developed by the author is based on the conventional notion that fiduciary liability is premised upon the

Abstract This chapter principally addresses fiduciary duties in unincorporated business enterprises, including partnerships and limited liability companies (LLCs). To some extent, these duties in the corporate law setting, primarily from a historical perspective, also are examined. The chapter’s objective is to highlight that the existence of fiduciary principles in partnerships and LLCs, namely, unincorporated business enterprises, have been substantially diminished. This diminution largely is due to the presence of enabling statutes that authorize partners and LLC members pursuant to contractual agreement to decrease and, at times, eliminate fiduciary duties that otherwise would apply. Because of this drastic reduction of the duties owed, general partners and LLC members, like corporate directors and officers, no longer should be deemed fiduciaries. Instead, these persons should be recognized as “discretionaries.”

Titles in the Core Text series take the reader straight to the heart of the subject, providing focused, concise, and reliable guides for students at all levels. This chapter discusses the nature and scope of fiduciary duties. It begins by considering the ‘no conflict’ rule, the basic rule governing fiduciaries. Under the rule, a fiduciary is liable to account for any profit he obtains in circumstances where his interests may conflict with his duty to his principal. It then turns to rules governing authorised profits; unauthorised profits and the liability to account for them; self-dealing and fair dealing rules; the proprietary and personal nature of the liability to account; equitable compensation for breach of fiduciary obligation; and secondary liability for breach of fiduciary obligation.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter addresses concepts of fiduciary duty under the federal securities laws. Although the federal securities laws are premised principally on disclosure rather than substantive fairness, fiduciary duty concepts arise in several contexts. On numerous occasions, the US Supreme Court has recognized that corporate directors and officers are fiduciaries. Nonetheless, although viewed as fiduciaries, lax liability standards often prevail. The propriety of these lax liability standards has been embraced by both the US Congress and the federal courts. The consequence is that a glaring gap exists between the rhetoric and standards of liability in the federal securities law setting. As evidenced by this approach, in actuality, corporate directors and officers are not fiduciaries and their status should be redefined to accurately reflect reality. Hence, like company law, it is appropriate to define corporate directors and officers as “discretionaries” rather than cling to the fiduciary illusion.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract This chapter focuses on the presence (or waiver) of fiduciary duties in close corporations. Generally, a close corporation is characterized by a relatively small number of shareholders, the absence of a ready market where the company’s securities may be traded, and substantial shareholder participation in the daily management and operations of the company. Likened to partnerships, many courts apply heightened fiduciary duties in the close corporation setting. Nonetheless, it may be questioned whether this approach is appropriate in view of state partnership statutes that enable partners pursuant to a unanimous partnership agreement to significantly reduce their duties of care and loyalty. Moreover, fiduciary duties in close corporations may be diluted by provisions contained in a subject company’s articles of incorporation or in a unanimous shareholder agreement. Accordingly, in the close corporation setting, directors and officers are “discretionaries” whose liability exposure varies depending on the underlying facts and circumstances.
