摘要

本文的目的是批判性地分析2014年1月1日在捷克共和国生效的《新民法典》和《商业公司法》对公司董事施加的忠诚义务的实质内容，并考虑违反这些义务的后果。对重新编纂的捷克私法的解释是模棱两可和相互矛盾的，既没有一致的解释，也没有判例法，而目前尚不清楚现有的判例法在多大程度上适用于这些法律。通过对捷克和英国忠诚义务概念的比较分析，旨在指出对移植的忠诚义务的一种可能的解释，并讨论重新编纂的捷克私法中与董事责任有关的理论问题。

The Duty of Loyalty Imposed on a Company Director: A Comparison between Czech and English Law

The aim of this contribution is to critically analyze the substance of the duty of loyalty imposed on a director of a company by the New Civil Code and the Business Corporation Act, which came into force in the Czech Republic on 1 January 2014, and consider the consequences of a breach thereof. The interpretation of recodified Czech private law is ambiguous and conflicting and there is neither consistent interpretation nor any case law, while at the moment it is not clear to what extent existing case law applies to these laws. This comparative analysis of the Czech and English concepts of the duty of loyalty aims to indicate a possible interpretation of the transplanted duty of loyalty and discuss theoretical issues connected with directors’ liabilty in recodified Czech private law.

期刊介绍： Review of Central and East European Law critically examines issues of legal doctrine and practice in the CIS and CEE regions. An important aspect of this is, for example, the harmonization of legal principles and rules; another facet is the legal impact of the intertwining of domestic economies, on the one hand, with regional economies and the processes of international trade and investment on the other. The Review offers a forum for discussion of topical questions of public and private law. The Review encourages comparative research; it is hoped that, in this way, additional insights in legal developments can be communicated to those interested in questions, not only of law, but also of politics, economics, and of society of the CIS and CEE countries.
