Hello,

I am a solicitor.

In my opinion, the "No Reflective Loss" rule should be more restrictive as companies are separate legal entitles from shareholders and shareholders should not be able to claim for loss of their shareholding in the case of loss to the company. There is a good article on this rule here: https://www.nortonrosefulbright.com/en-hk/knowledge/publications/0688bcea/shareholder-claims-and-the-no-reflective-loss-rule

May I help further?

Sir, what if the no reflective loss rule become more flexible towards shareholders
Expert:  UKSolicitorJA replied 16 days ago.

Shareholders would then have the double advantage of being shielded from claims against the company (corporate veil) and being able to make claims for loss to their shareholdings in the event of loss to the company (which defeats the purpose of corporate veils).
