This article attempts to answer the question whether a shareholder has a right to compensation in the event of a decline in share value resulting from any wrongdoing causing damage directly to the company. So defined research question induces discussion on two major conceptual grounds. On the one hand, broader analysis of principles governing liability in damages by virtue of the provisions of the Polish civil law shall be expounded. On the other hand, thorough consideration will be given to peculiarity of a shareholder’s stake and involvement in the company and the legal nature of shares as such. The aforementioned findings will have conclusively led to determine the question of whether a shareholder as a de facto victim is entitled to compensation for his own injury which in fact constitutes part of damage sustained by the company.
