  • Abstract:
  • The connection between a firm and its third-party stakeholders, such as investors, creditors, and customers, is governed by the idea of indoor management, a key legal premise in company law. The theory strives to protect the rights of third parties who conduct business with a company under the presumption that its internal affairs have been managed properly and in accordance with the firm's bylaws. According to the idea, even if a company's executives and representatives lack the legal capacity to act on the company's behalf, third parties may rely on their seeming authority. The indoor management theory is important because it balances businesses' needs to maintain internal control and stakeholders' interests outside the company. Without this theory, businesses would be subject to potentially limitless liability for the decisions made by their officers and agents, even if those decisions are beyond the scope of those individuals' actual authority. This would hinder businesses' ability to do business and deter them from delegating decision-making authority. To put it another way, the person making a transaction with the organization just had to make sure that it did not violate the company's articles of incorporation or bylaws. He is not needed to be aware of the internal contradictions of the firm, and if there are any, the company will be held accountable because the person behaved in good faith and was not aware of the internal structure of the organization.
