The question of establishing the legal consequences of breaches of the law concerning the conclusion of transactions entered into by corporations
The purpose of the article is to examine the legal consequences of violations of major transactions committed by corporations: both on the part of recognizing such a transaction as invalid, and on the part of the responsibility of individuals, and in particular on corporate management bodies. The article provides an analysis of the views of researchers on the issues of subsequent approval of an already concluded major transaction. According to the results of the study, the authors concluded that the consideration of the issue of the nature of relations between managers and society is important for proper legal qualification of relations and determination of the grounds, conditions of liability for a major transaction, as well as the procedure for attracting and determining the amount of losses or harm. In the conclusion of the article, proposals are formulated on the need to make changes to the concept of determining the interest of a person in relation to a transaction in such a way that such a classification would take place not on formal grounds, but on the actual interest of individuals, defining such a mechanism as a presumption of interest and a presumption of no interest.
