General Business Advice

Company Administration and Meetings

If your business is a Limited Company or LLP then running your business and generating income is only one part of the story. As a Limited Company, your business has obligations and duties that it must comply with in relation to accounting, filing documents and meetings. The conduct at certain meetings is regulated and there are statutory records that you have to keep.

General meetings are routing meetings called to discuss specific issues. There is a statutory length of notice required for general meetings which may be called by the directors or a certain number of the members. Companies must also hold an annual general meeting (AGM). Decisions taken at these meetings are known as resolutions and some of these may have to be filed at Companies House.

There are also issues as to voting (who can vote, how many votes are required, can you use a proxy) which you may need clarified before you call a general meeting.

We are happy to provide training on Director's Duties (which includes company administration) and we also act as Company Secretary for several local companies. If you need advice or guidance on your company administration or you need someone to take some of the stress of admin away from you, call our Commercial Team to see how we can help.
