Statutory Compliance And Corporate Governance Support Service
Keeping a company’s statutory records and governance processes up to date is an important part of maintaining good corporate standing and reducing regulatory risk. For many businesses, however, statutory compliance can become fragmented over time, particularly where company records, shareholder information, director changes, annual filings and governance documents are not managed through a structured process.
We are pleased to introduce our Statutory Compliance and Corporate Governance Support Service, designed to assist companies with the practical management of their statutory obligations under the Companies Act, their constitutional documents and applicable CIPC filing requirements.
Practical support for company statutory compliance
Our service is aimed at helping companies assess, maintain and strengthen their statutory governance framework. This includes conducting statutory audits of company records, evaluating existing governance processes, identifying instances of actual or potential non-compliance, and recommending or implementing corrective actions where required.
We also assist with the ongoing maintenance of annual statutory compliance obligations, including:
- filing annual returns;
- submitting beneficial ownership declarations;
-
submitting CIPC compliance checklists;
- updating and maintaining share registers and director registers;
- assisting with annual meeting requirements; and
- liaising with auditors on statutory matters where the company is subject to audit.
Ad-hoc company secretarial and statutory support
In addition to annual compliance support, we assist with a range of ad-hoc statutory matters, including the drafting of shareholder and board resolutions, changes to company constitutional documents, director changes, share subscriptions and transfers, non-resident endorsements of foreign shareholder share certificates, changes to auditors, financial year-end changes, registered office address updates, deregistrations and re-instatement of annual return deregistered entities.
We also assist with company registrations, including private companies and external companies, company name reservations and defensive name registrations.
Where required, we can act as a CIPC agent to assist with the filing of prescribed documents and annual compliance submissions.
Who can benefit from this service?
This service is suitable for companies that require practical, reliable support in maintaining their statutory records and governance processes. It is particularly useful for businesses that:
- need to regularise or update their company records;
- have undergone changes in shareholding, directors, auditors or registered details;
- require assistance with annual CIPC filings;
- want to ensure that statutory registers and governance documents are complete and current;
- are preparing for an audit, due diligence process or internal governance review; or
- need ongoing support with company secretarial and statutory administration.
Why this matters
Incomplete or outdated statutory records can create unnecessary compliance risk, delay corporate transactions, complicate audits and result in avoidable administrative challenges with CIPC. A structured statutory compliance process helps companies maintain proper governance records, support regulatory accountability and ensure that key company information remains accurate and aligned with legal requirements.
