A quick definition of fiduciary-shield doctrine:

Term: Fiduciary-Shield Doctrine

Definition: The fiduciary-shield doctrine is a principle that protects corporate officers from being held personally liable for actions taken on behalf of the corporation. This means that a corporate officer's actions cannot be used as a basis for jurisdiction over the officer in an individual capacity. Essentially, the doctrine shields officers from personal liability for actions taken in their official capacity as a fiduciary of the corporation.

A more thorough explanation:

The fiduciary-shield doctrine is a principle in corporate law that protects corporate officers from being held personally liable for actions taken on behalf of the corporation. This means that a corporate officer's act cannot be the basis for jurisdiction over the officer in an individual capacity.

For example, if a CEO of a company makes a decision that results in a lawsuit against the company, the CEO cannot be personally sued for that decision. The lawsuit would be against the company itself, not the CEO.

The fiduciary-shield doctrine is based on the idea that corporate officers have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the corporation, and that they should be able to make decisions without fear of personal liability as long as they are acting in good faith and within the scope of their authority.
