When should the board of directors of a Swiss AG introduce organizational regulations?
Antwort
As soon as the Board of Directors delegates any operational tasks — even subtasks — to board members or third parties. Written regulations in accordance with Art. 716b CO are then mandatory. If the board does everything itself, it is not mandatory, but highly recommended as a best practice for an orderly organization in accordance with Art. 716a CO.
