Talking Business podcast: how will Government exercise its new powers to intervene in transactions?

In this month’s round up of recent developments, host Sophie Brookes explains the digital process for stamping documents, such as stock transfer forms, and also examines the latest guidance about how the Government will exercise its new powers to intervene in transactions on the grounds of national security. She also tells a cautionary tale of a case in which a director was held personally liable for auction bids he placed on behalf of his company and explains the limits placed on a party exercising a contractual discretion.
