# kaal:claim:2317580-036

**Claim.** It is unclear whether corporations with CIAs will be uniformly affected, and future courts are likely to expand the basic legal duty of care only where the facts suggest that the CIA actually provided directors with more knowledge about compliance activities.

**Type.** predictive  **Support.** speculative

**Holds when.**

- future litigation following the Pfizer precedent
- facts showing the CIA increased director knowledge

**Source quote.**

> In light of the Pfizer precedent, future courts could hold directors of corporations that executed CIAs to a higher standard and thereby expand their basic legal duty of care if the facts suggest that CIAs provided directors with more knowledge about compliance activities.
