Sorry, make that conflict of interests.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Steffen Walter : Not sure because this conflict of interest would be the result of a Doppelbänderschaft (Doppelmandat), at least according to your Uni Hamburg reference.

interlocking directorate

Wikipedia: Interlocking directorate refers to the practice of members of a corporate board of directors serving on the boards of multiple corporations.

In the US, this practice is forbidden if the business are in the same industry segment and would violate antitrust regulations if they merged.
