Abstract

On 6th February, 1987, Goldman Sachs (the plaintiffs in the action from which this appeal arose and the respondents to the appeal hereinafter referred to as the Plaintiffs) purchased US$10m face value worth of Exxon bonds for which they paid US$2.26m. They sold them on and a month later it transpired that the bonds were forgeries. The London brokers from whom the Plaintiffs bought the bonds revealed, following police enquiries, that they acted on the instructions of a Mr Philip Lyons (the Defendant). Mr Lyons was a Chartered Accountant, and had delivered the bonds to the clearing house when the sale was concluded and he also controlled the Liechtenstein Anstalt (a form of nominee trust) to which the purchase price had been paid. In April 1987 Mr Lyons was arrested and charged with forgery and deception.

Abstract

Purpose

The paper examines case law and statutory provisions related to lifting the corporate veil. The aim of the paper is to explore recent case law in order to determine whether courts have moved away from an overly restrictive approach when dealing with cases relating to the corporate personality. To offer a full account of the exceptions to the corporate personality doctrine, this paper also examines cases where the veil of incorporation is lifted due to a breach of a statutory provision.

Design/methodology/approach

The paper reviews recent case law and statutory provisions relating to lifting the corporate veil. The paper critically reviews the exceptions to the corporate personality doctrine which amount to lifting the corporate veil.

Findings

The paper finds that courts are more willing to lift the corporate veil compared to before. They have moved away from the restrictive approach and this is demonstrated by the tendency to find new exceptions to the corporate personality doctrine such as the interests of justice argument or lifting the veil in tort cases.

Originality/value

The paper offers an up-to-date assessment of the exceptions to the corporate personality doctrine and highlights the growing tendency to finding new ways of lifting the corporate veil.
