Are you Companies Act compliant?

Have you updated your corporate governance documents and procedures?

With directors' duties having been codified for the first time under the Companies Act 2006, company directors now more than ever need to keep pace with changing legislation to protect not only their companies, but also themselves.

The Companies Act has introduced numerous changes to the procedures by which companies are managed. For example, with out-of-date articles of association, your company may not be able to enter into the agreements and contracts it needs without falling foul of its own governance and may be using electronic communications for decision-making processes without having the proper authority to do so.

Our corporate team can quickly and effectively check the health of your company against the corporate documents you hold and those on the public record at Companies House, giving you recommendations to bring any weak areas up-to-date with current legislation.
