No, a nominee director is not involved in day-to-day management or business decisions; management is handled by the shareholders who actually run the company and the other directors. Legally, however, a nominee director has the same duties as any other director.
For this reason, the nominee director checks that the company complies with its statutory filing and accounting obligations, and reviews the content and supporting documents before signing important resolutions or documents. It may not be possible to sign documents that raise concerns about legal violations.
Lee Kim Alliance provides a nominee director service.
