The Director Shareholder Agreement is a crucial document for companies where directors hold shares in the business. It is particularly important in private companies operating under English and Welsh law where the separation between ownership and management is less distinct. This agreement addresses the dual role of director-shareholders, establishing clear protocols for decision-making, share transfers, and dispute resolution. It helps protect both the company's and individuals' interests while ensuring compliance with the Companies Act 2006 and other relevant legislation.
