Examines the duty of loyalty in U.K. company law, suggesting significant implications despite its absence in the Companies Act 2006.

The term “loyalty” does not appear in the codification of directors’ duties in the Companies Act 2006, which implies directors do not owe a duty of loyalty. The paper queries but ultimately endorses this assessment and identifies the implications.
