Direksi adalah salah satu organ Perseroan Terbatas yang berwenang dan bertanggung jawab penuh atas pengurusan suatu Perseroan Terbatas. Direksi dalam menjalankan tugasnya harus disesuaikan dengan maksud dan tujuan perseroan. Direksi juga berwenang untuk mewakili Perseroan, baik di dalam maupun di luar pengadilan sesuai dengan ketentuan anggaran dasar Perseroan. Tindakan seorang Direksi adalah suatu hal yang sangat penting untuk kelangsungan dan perkembangan Perseroan yang diurusnya. Dalam kepengurusannya, Direksi wajib menjalankan fiduciary duty yang didalamnya meliputi juga duty of care dan duty of loyalty. Dalam menjalankan tugas fiduciary duty-nya tersebut direksi dilindungi oleh Business Judgement of Rule, sehingga apabila perseroan mengalami kerugian maka direksi hanya mempunyai tanggungjawab yang terbatas dan tidak akan dimintakan pertanggungjawaban secara pribadi. Tetapi didalam kasus PT.X ini, direksi telah lalai dalam melaksanakan prinsip Duty of care dalam perjanjian yang dibuat atas namaPT.X, sehingga mengakibatkan kerugian bagi PT.X yang diurusnya. Hal ini berakibat bahwa direksi dapat dimintakan pertanggungjawaban secara pribadi terhadap kerugian yang diderita oleh PT.X.
