论董事之忠实义务

On the Duty of Loyalty of Directors

随着现代公司治理架构从"股东会中心主义"向"董事会中心主义"的演变,公司董事会的权限不断扩大,为了更加周全地保护公司的合法权益,各经济发达国家的公司立法都在不断强化董事的忠实义务:不得违规自我交易、不得篡夺公司机会、竞业禁止义务、禁止泄露公司秘密、不得侵占或擅自处理公司财产、不得利用职权收受贿赂或其他非法收入等,并规定了违反各忠实义务应承担的损害赔偿责任。而我国现行《公司法》对董事忠实义务的相关规定仍然十分粗陋、简略,因此,应当借鉴国外先进立法和实践经验,不断完善有关董事忠实义务的相关法律规定。

With the development of modern corporate governance form from centralism of the shareholders meeting to that of the board, the power of the board extends ceaselessly. To protect the company from being aggrieved by directors, every country＇s legislation increases the duty of loyalty of directors. The relevant regulations about the duty of loyalty of directors in our company law are not perfect. Therefore, we should enrich and consummate the relevant regulations persistently by using the advanced legislation in foreign countries for reference.
