Breach of Mandate Claims & the Quincecare Duty

Introduction

The scope of the Quincecare duty has recently been clarified by the Supreme Court in the case of Philipp v Barclays Bank plc.

The case is of critical importance to individuals and organisations bringing and defending claims involving banking fraud and misappropriated funds.

This new virtual classroom seminar will provide you with an overview of the Quincecare duty and breach of mandate claims, an analysis of the developing jurisprudence in this area and the legal implications arising from recent case law.

It will also provide you with various practical examples of circumstances/red flags that could trigger the duty, which can lead to establishing liability.
