Corporate law update: reducing red tape post-Brexit

In this month's update, host Sophie Brookes talks us through some changes proposed in the Government's policy paper aimed at reducing red tape post-Brexit as well as some more immediate changes to the rules on winding-up petitions in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. Sophie also discusses two recent cases which considered whether a company's directors had breached their duties by issuing shares to defeat resolutions at a general meeting and whether increasing the pre-default interest rate in a loan agreement by 400% post-default was an unenforceable penalty.
