    That’s…. not how that works.

    You don’t avoid having a conflict of interest, just because all the company’s assets are tied up in property, plant and equipment. Especially when you own 25% of that company.

    The company still has assets that could represent a conflict, they are still operating, and submitted financial statements for 2021.
