Results.In many cases, the responsibility for the misconduct in the company lies with the manager, because it is he who makes certain decisions in the company that can be risky. If a claim is made for damages in connection with a transaction concluded by the head of the company, but this has been approved by the board, the responsibility for such transaction lies with the board of the company, unless the manager is at fault. The head of the company is also liable for inaction when, knowing that the company is potentially committing an offense, it does not take any action as a result.

Our literature review shows that there are many types of companies.They range from partnerships to limited liability companies, including hybrid companies, namely limited liability companies.
