Passive Investments Clause Samples
The Passive Investments clause defines how investments that do not involve active management or control by the investor are treated under the agreement. Typically, this clause clarifies that holding a minority, non-controlling interest in a company—such as owning shares in a publicly traded corporation—does not violate non-compete or conflict of interest provisions. Its core function is to ensure that parties can make routine, non-influential investments without breaching the agreement, thereby allowing for personal financial growth while maintaining the integrity of the contract's restrictions.
