LIABILITY

Although legal entities, such as private companies, public limited companies and foundations have separate assets, directors and members of the Supervisory Board can be held personally liable in various situations, including their liability for the company’s bankruptcy and their liability for unlawful acts even if the company has not gone bankrupt. This also applies to other parties involved, such as external advisers and auditors.
