Re Barings plc (No 5)
''Re Barings plc (No 5)'' () 1 BCLC 523 is a leading UK company law case, concerning directors' duties of care and skill. Some reporters and commentators call this case "No 5"〔L Sealy and S Worthington, ''Company Law'' (OUP 2007)〕 while others refer to it as "No 6" in the saga of litigation concerning Barings Bank.
==Facts==
Nick Leeson was a dishonest futures trader in Singapore for the former Barings Bank. He traded in the front office and also did work, in breach of an internal audit recommendation, in the back office. He fraudulently doctored the bank's accounts, and reported large profits, while trading at losses. After an earthquake in Kobe, Japan, the stock market went into a downward spiral, and the truth of his losses were uncovered. The Secretary of State sought director disqualification orders under the Company Directors Disqualification Act 1986 against three directors of Barings for their failure to supervise his activities. They were alleged to be incompetent, and therefore "unfit to be concerned in the management of a company" (sections 6-8).
