Millions Disappeared in a House Purchase in Santa Ponça: A Reality Check

Answer

Can a managing director move company money in Mallorca without shareholder approval?

It depends on the company structure and the internal rules that apply, but broad control by one managing director can create serious risks. If major sums are involved, shareholders should normally have clear rights to review or approve what happens. The Santa Ponça case highlights how vulnerable a company can be when that balance is missing.
