Problem Style Question:
QED Ltd. is a medium-sized company involved in the technology sector. The company has four directors who are also shareholders: Anita, Macky, George, and Hannah. Recently, the company has encountered several issues due to the actions of its directors. As a legal trainee at City Law Firm, you have been asked to write a report for the firm’s client, QED Ltd., analysing the implications of the directors’ actions in relation to the following matters:
- Anita arranged for QED Ltd. to purchase a commercial property from her cousin at an inflated price. The transaction was not disclosed to the shareholders, and no independent valuation was obtained. The property was later found to be worth significantly less than the purchase price.
- Macky, without consulting the board, secured a substantial loan from a bank in the name of QED Ltd. The loan was used to cover personal debts. The bank is now seeking repayment from QED Ltd., and the company is unsure whether it is liable for the repayment.
- George, acting on his own, decided to invest a significant portion of the company’s funds in a high-risk venture without conducting proper due diligence or consulting with financial advisors. The venture failed, resulting in substantial financial losses and a significant devaluation of QED Ltd.'s shares.
Prepare a report setting out your advice to the client including the consequences and implication of the respective director’s conduct and available remedies to the company (statutory, common law and contractual). Your supervisor requests you to include the source of references including related statutory provisions, case law and supporting materials.
- Page limit – at least 8 pages (including footnotes but excluding bibliography).
- All references must be OSCOLA compliant.

Academic Conduct Offences Explained
In this assessment you are permitted to use genAI tools (or a proofreader or proofreading service) to proofread your work but not permitted to use AI tools in the creation of the content of your work.
Neither a proof-reader nor a proof-reading tool (whether genAI or not) can ever be used to make changes to your work directly; the proof-reader or proof-reading tool must only identify and draw attention to possible changes which you can then choose to accept or reject; this will ensure that you remain the author of your work.
For clarity, where a proofreader, proofreading service or genAI tool is used, they/it may only:
- identify spelling and typographical errors;
- identify poor grammar;
- highlight formatting errors or inconsistencies;
- identify errors in labelling of diagrams, charts or figures;
- identify areas for possible improvement;
- highlight a sentence or paragraph where the meaning is not clear; or
- draw attention to repeated phrases or omitted words.
Additionally, you are required to reference the genAI proofreading tool you have used: eg;
"I used [GenAI tool and model] to proofread my coursework for grammar and spelling errors."
The deadline for submission is 21 April 2026 at 12:00 noon.
