Costs Implications of Statutory Derivatice Actions

Those applying for leave to bring a statutory derivative action (or the substantive proceedings) need to consider the costs implications. 

The matters that need to be considered include: -

  • whether an indemnity should be given to the company;
  • how to approach the issue of security for costs (in the main proceedings);
  • how to go about recovering costs if the proceedings are successful
