Conflicts of interest: public limited companies have to prove the damage.
According to the art. 2391 of the Civil Code a public limited company, which files a claim for obtaining the compensation for the damages caused by the director who acts in a conflict of interest, has to prove the unjustified damage as well as the causal link with the responsible conduct.
This is what the Court of Cassation established with the ordinance n. 14072 dated 1st June 2018.
