A GmbH managing director can be prosecuted in many ways and by violating <a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/managing-director-duties\/\">duties<\/a> cause high damage. Delayed insolvency, misappropriation of funds entrusted to us, bribery of contractual partners, bribery by accepting advantages or fraud are common cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the event of tortious acts, such as criminal offences, injured parties have a claim for damages against the managing director. Also violation of <a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/antitrust\/\">antitrust law<\/a>&nbsp;kann einen Schadensersatzanspruch begr\u00fcnden. Dazu z\u00e4hlen insbesondere&nbsp;Preisabsprachen mit Wettbewerbern oder unerlaubte Beschr\u00e4nkungen des Wettbewerbs in vertikalen Vereinbarungen mit H\u00e4ndlern, etwa <a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/vertical-gmo-720-2022-pricing-recommended-price-and-price-comparison\/\">price targets<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the lack of assets or the insolvency of the managing director often stand in the way of an effective enforcement of a claim for damages. Because a GmbH managing director who is guilty of corruption or another offense under the criminal law provisions of the Criminal Code must expect the confiscation of his assets, fines or penalties and procedural costs. Despite his personal liability, there is often nothing more to get from the managing director for injured parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the company for which the manager acted is also liable for damages for the damage caused by the manager&#039;s actions under certain conditions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Liability for breach of duty by the managing director<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ein GmbH-Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrer haftet zun\u00e4chst der eigenen Gesellschaft auf Schadensersatz, wenn er seine <a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/managing-directors-liability-for-breach-of-duty-towards-the-gmbh\/\">Sorgfaltspflichten<\/a> verletzt. Dies ist so im GmbH-Gesetz klar geregelt, und gilt auch f\u00fcr die <a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/managing-directors-liability-for-breach-of-duty-towards-the-gmbh\/\">GmbH &amp; Co. KG<\/a>.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/directors-liability-risks-and-protective-measures\/\">This liability of the managing director with his private assets according to the GmbH law<\/a>&nbsp;exists, however, only in the internal relationship to society. Third parties, i.e. contractual partners of the company, who have been harmed by a criminal offense by the managing director, cannot invoke the violation of the duty of care towards the company. The statutory claim for damages according to the GmbH law is only available to the company and must be asserted by the general meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are situations in which the company must accept liability for a breach of duty by the management towards the injured party. The company is responsible for any damage that the manager causes to a third party through an action carried out by the manager within the framework of the duties assigned to him as manager. In other words: The company must be responsible with its GmbH assets if the managing director causes damage. This applies in particular if the shareholders&#039; meeting was aware of his actions. The shareholders&#039; meeting and all shareholders are therefore well advised to always make sure that all managing directors - including managing directors - as their employees always act with the care of a prudent businessman.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This liability of the GmbH does not mean any contractual claims for damages that aggrieved companies have against the company due to the breach of contractual obligations. For example, the landlord of business premises can demand that the renting company pay the rent and repair damage. This is clear. But in such cases, the GmbH managing director has not committed any tort. The liability of the GmbH for the actions of the managing director refers to cases in which this managing director commits a tortious act, in particular a criminal offense or an antitrust violation, and thereby causes damage to a third party. The company cannot then claim that it did not want the management to commit a crime. This excuse doesn&#039;t work. Because the BGB orders a civil law liability of the company, in which the managing director causes damage to third parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bribery by GmbH directors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Cases of corruption in business dealings (\u00a7 299 StGB), also known as corruption and bribery, are more common. If, for example, the managing director of a GmbH decides to give a customer\u2019s buyer special advantages, such as monetary payments or participation in luxury events, so that his GmbH can benefit from unfair preferential treatment in the award of contracts, this is not just acting against fair competition . It is a clear case of commercial corruption in the form of bribery and therefore a criminal offence. Corruption also works the other way around as bribery: If a managing director allows himself to be paid in the course of business transactions so that he places an order with a company and concludes a contract with it, he is also liable to prosecution.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important to note that bribery cannot be committed negligently. If the GmbH managing director understandably assumed that the &quot;extra payment&quot; was a commission for an agency service, he was only acting negligently and is not liable to prosecution. Accordingly, managing directors are not liable for damages. Bribery always requires intentional action, after which the managing director at least accepted that there could be bribery in business transactions. If he himself accepts funds for the award of contracts or unfair preferential treatment, he is always acting intentionally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>W\u00e4hrend sich immer nur der Handelnde pers\u00f6nlich strafbar machen kann, droht anderen Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrern, dass sie gemeinsam der Haftung auf Schadensersatz unterliegen. Ein Schadensersatzanspruch wegen einer Pflichtverletzung eines Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrers trifft immer auch alle anderen Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrer, aber nur gegen\u00fcber der Gesellschaft, nicht jedoch gegen\u00fcber Dritten. Allerdings k\u00f6nnen Gesch\u00e4digte einen etwaigen Schadensersatzanspruch der Gesellschaft gegen einen ihrer Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrer im Wege der Zwangsvollstreckung pf\u00e4nden, wenn sie ihren Schadensersatzanspruch gegen die Gesellschaft durchsetzen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">antitrust violations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the area of antitrust law, the risk of violations is also high. The courts in the EU are increasingly dealing with antitrust claims for damages. Even if violations of antitrust law in Germany - apart from the case of bid fraud in procurement procedures - are not punishable, antitrust law gives companies that paid excessive prices as a result of price agreements between competitors a statutory claim for damages. The injured parties are regularly dependent on the corresponding procedures of the Federal Cartel Office or the European Commission being completed. But as long as these procedures are running, none occurs <a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/antitrust-claims-for-compensation-statute-of-limitations\/\">Limitation of the claim for damages<\/a> according to \u00a7 33 GWB. The liability extends to all damages that have occurred as a result of anti-trust behavior, in particular the sale at prices that were increased due to the anti-trust laws. The damage that occurs and the associated risk of liability can be considerable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even where a violation of antitrust law does not cause any damage and therefore does not justify a claim for damages, there is a considerable risk for the GmbH&#039;s assets. When specifying resale prices for retailers, for example, it is usually difficult or impossible to prove damage. In addition to the claim for damages, the company that has committed a violation of antitrust law by its managing director is also threatened with fines due to the violation of antitrust law. Antitrust compliance, i.e. internal regulations and training courses on compliance with antitrust law and <a href=\"https:\/\/andrelang-law.de\/en\/distribution-right\/\">competition law<\/a>, should therefore be capitalized and implemented in every society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Risk of liability of the company in case of crime \u2013 civil liability towards third parties<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If the GmbH shareholders are confronted with criminal acts by the management and a claim for compensation for the damage caused by the violation of legal regulations, the horror is regularly great. The GmbH shareholders will dismiss and dismiss the respective managing director with immediate effect by a resolution in the shareholders&#039; meeting. In practice, the new management is faced with the great challenge of &quot;cleaning up&quot;, i.e. pursuing the claims for damages that have been asserted and examining and also asserting each of the company&#039;s own claims for damages against the former management. This regularly requires the involvement of external consultants and is time-consuming and costly. The shareholders will also find themselves exposed to the accusation that the machinations of the GmbH managers have remained hidden from them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies that want to assert claims for damages against a GmbH due to tortious acts by its management must first prove the criminal offense or the violation of antitrust law. Only then is the managing director liable. This liability is transferred to the GmbH in accordance with \u00a7 31 BGB. It is therefore always first of all to check whether there is an unlawful act on the part of the managing director that justifies his obligation to pay damages in order to then be able to assert this against the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It does not matter whether the managing director wanted to act &quot;with the best of intentions&quot; and whether the transaction brought an advantage for the company or the other company. The mere fact that a payment or an advantage was made (bribery) or he accepted a payment (bribery) justifies criminal liability. The GmbH managing director can therefore not refer to the positive effects of his entrepreneurial decisions. Criminal offenses are never covered by the so-called Business Judgment Rule, i.e. the entrepreneurial discretion of the management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Im \u00dcbrigen wird eine Zahlung regelm\u00e4\u00dfig in den Preis oder die Verg\u00fctung &#8222;eingepreist&#8220; sein, so dass hierin auch der Verm\u00f6gensschaden gesehen wird. Entsprechend haften Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrer auf Schadensersatz. Hinzukommt, dass der Vertrag im Fall der Bestechung bzw. Bestechlichkeit im gesch\u00e4ftlichen Verkehr sittenwidrig und damit unwirksam ist. Das gesch\u00e4digte Unternehmen kann daher als Schadensersatz die R\u00fcckzahlung der gezahlten Verg\u00fctung verlangen. Ist ein Vertrag unwirksam, besteht kein Anspruch darauf, eine Zahlung behalten zu d\u00fcrfen. Es kann dann zwar eine \u00fcbliche Verg\u00fctung verlangt werden; diese kann jedoch hinter der urspr\u00fcnglich vereinbarten Zahlung weit zur\u00fcckbleiben. Auch insoweit besteht also ein hohes Haftungsrisiko, das auch zur Insolvenz des betroffenen Unternehmens f\u00fchren kann.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Wenn ein Unternehmen Opfer von Straftaten oder Kartellrechtsverst\u00f6\u00dfen durch die eigene Gesch\u00e4ftsf\u00fchrung oder die eines anderen Unternehmens wurde, sollte es stets Schadensersatzanspr\u00fcche pr\u00fcfen.
