Supporting your business entities throughout their lifecycles

 

Ensuring compliance with a host of local statutory company secretarial obligations is a time-consuming exercise, especially if you have companies registered in a number of different jurisdictions. We help our clients deal with registration, maintenance, administration and corporate governance matters concerning their corporate entities.

 

Our corporate secretarial team has in-depth experience in assisting our clients throughout the different stages of their companies’ lifecycles. We start by helping them establish and form various kinds of entities in different jurisdictions. Then, we ensure that these entities comply with corporate governance procedures and controls on a day-to-day basis, and that their statutory company secretarial obligations are properly executed and maintained on an ongoing basis.
