The Director's Position
When things go wrong inside a company, the investigation does not stay inside the company. Whether you hold a non-executive or executive role, the scrutiny is personal. The consequences are personal. And every governance platform on the market was built for the institution — not for you.
I
Director duties of care, skill and diligence are personal and non-delegable — for NEDs and executive directors alike. No board resolution, no company policy, and no institutional platform removes what the law places on you individually.
II
Regulatory investigation, civil proceedings, and D&O insurance scrutiny are directed at individuals. Whether you are a NED, an executive director, or a senior officer, when you leave a board your personal exposure does not leave with you. The company's records do.
III
What the company owns cannot protect you. A governance record held in a system controlled by the organisation you once served is not your protection. It is theirs.
Jurisdiction Coverage
Archimedes Lever operates across four jurisdictions, each with distinct personal liability frameworks for NEDs, executive directors and senior officers. The same individual exposure — in every market, at every level.
United Kingdom
Companies Act 2006
Directors' duties of care, skill and diligence are codified as personal obligations. The standard is applied to the individual director's specific knowledge, experience, and role.
United States
Delaware / Caremark Standard
Directors face individual oversight liability under Caremark. Good faith oversight requires more than institutional compliance — it requires personal, demonstrable engagement.
United Arab Emirates
ADGM & DIFC Frameworks
Director obligations under ADGM and DIFC regulation impose personal accountability standards on senior officers operating within the financial free zones.
Australia
Corporations Act 2001
ASIC v Healey confirmed that directors cannot rely on management to discharge their personal oversight obligations. Active, informed engagement is the required standard.
