Corporate Secretarial Services

Corporate secretarial services

 

The company secretary is responsible for all ACRA-related compliance matters and ensures that the company and its directors adhere to rules and regulations set out in the company's constitution. The board of directors look to the company secretary for guidance regarding their duties and on regulatory compliance and corporate governance.
