DIGITAL CORPORATE GOVERNANCE IN SLOVAKIA

The paper focuses on the current trend of digitalisation of decision-making processes. Legal risks associated with the use of digital technologies in facilitating decision-making by corporate bodies and the means to mitigate such risks are brought into attention. The author supports the view that the current Slovak legislation is insufficient for full-fledged virtual shareholders’ meetings but is sufficient for the use of digital means as a support or substitute for the decision-making of corporate board members. The general framework of the draft recodification of the Slovak Civil Code allowing associates (members of corporations including civil associations) to participate virtually in meetings of associates of all corporate legal forms is considered an up-to-date solution.
