Company Setup
A company is a separate legal entity formed under the Corporations Act 2001. It can be registered through ASIC, which is the regulatory body overseeing company registrations and compliance in Australia. Having a well-drafted company constitution is crucial as it sets out the rules for the governance of your company and helps prevent disputes among shareholders and directors. Our comprehensive services includes;
- Company Registration: Hassle-free company registration with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).
- Company Constitutions: Includes your company constitution ensuring compliance with legal requirements and industry standards.
- Preparation of Minutes and Resolutions: Comprehensive preparation of essential company documents, accurate and timely recording of minutes for board meetings, drafting resolutions to formalise important company decisions.
