The Risks of Inadequate RMC Director Preparation
Serving as an RMC Director without proper understanding of your responsibilities can expose you to serious personal and financial consequences.
Common Compliance Failures:
- Late filing of accounts and failure to maintain accurate Company records under the Companies Act 2006.
- Missed fire safety checks or building defect repairs under the Building Safety Act 2022.
- Poor financial oversight leading to budget shortfalls and legal disputes.
- Neglect that impacts property values, community relationships and reputational damage of the RMC.
- Lack of understanding around GDPR and the role of the RMC when managing personal data.
Our RMC Director training equips you with practical tools and confidence to stay compliant - helping you avoid severe consequences such as criminal prosecution, unlimited personal fines, and disqualification from serving as a director for up to 15 years.

Personal Liability Risks
- As an RMC Director, you have legal duties under the Companies Act 2006, failing to meet these obligations could result in personal liability.
- Breaches, such as late filing of accounts, failure to maintain accurate company records, or non-compliance with health and safety requirements (including building and fire safety) - may lead to criminal prosecution.
- Directors can also face unlimited personal fines and even disqualification from serving as a director for up to 15 years.
Building Safety Compliance
- With the Building Safety Act 2022, RMC Directors of high-rise buildings face increased accountability. Failure to maintain adequate fire safety measures, complete mandatory inspections, or rectify building defects may result in enforcement action, significant fines, and, in severe cases, criminal prosecution if resident safety is compromised.
Financial Consequences
- Poor financial management or inadequate oversight of service charge funds can result in budget shortfalls, unexpected levies on residents, and potential legal action.
- Directors may be held personally liable for financial losses arising from negligence or breach of fiduciary duty, particularly if company funds are mismanaged or contracts are poorly negotiated.
Reputational and Community Impact
- Inadequate management can result in deteriorating property conditions, declining property values, and strained community relationships. Poor decisions or failure to act on critical maintenance can lead to prolonged disputes among residents and undermine the harmonious environment you aim to protect.
