Answer:
Interlocking corporate director
Explanation:
Interlocking corporate director refers to an individual serving as a director on the board of multiple companies.
Interlocking directorship is not considered illegal if the companies of which the same individual serves as a director, are not competing firms.
In the given case, an individual serves on the board of a bank, also serves the board of a computer manufacturing company that usually borrows from the bank.
Here, the independence and objectivity of the director would be impaired and this may lead to a situation of conflict of interests as the director exercises sizable influence in framing the lending policies of the bank.
Thus, such a situation would be in violation and the director may have to step down from the board of one of the companies.
