By NACD and Marsh McLennan

05/15/2017

Committees and Roles

In Brief: The legal landscape for board members is complex and risky—recent developments include increases in securities lawsuits, M&A litigation, and emerging threats from claims related to cybersecurity, data privacy, climate change, and more. Marsh and NACD have compiled a collection of brief articles accompanied by key takeaways, checklists, and questions for boards related to a range of timely directors and officers (D&O) liability issues, including:

  • The annual D&O approval process

  • D&O considerations for private-company boards

  • M&A, cybersecurity, and global-company D&O trends and implications

  • Regulatory and employment claims investigations
