Company secretarial & compliance services
While there is no longer a legal requirement for a non-public company to have a company secretary, this does not mean that the administrative burden has diminished in respect of the information that needs to be kept, maintained, and submitted to Companies House.
This information is very important, not only is it a legal necessity but maintaining the company registers accurately and within the legal timeframe is an imperative for potential external stakeholders, such as banks, investors or purchasers of your business. Failing to stay on top of this maybe the first indication to external parties that you do not have the appropriate controls within your organisation. It can also leave your company subject to fines and penalties due to late filings or failing to do so.
Our services can cover:
- Filing of companies house forms, annual returns, change of company details, shareholder information, resolutions etc.
- Insurances - liaising with appropriate advisors to ensure the company has all the necessary insurances in place
- Interface with legal advisors
- Contract management
- Maintenance of the company’s statutory books and records
- Data Protection Compliance
International operations
If you are planning to expand abroad into new markets, you need to consider numerous things, from setting up a subsidiary company or in-country branch under different laws and jurisdiction, learning about the different accounting regulations, to ensuring your marketing is fit for purpose.
Do members of your management team have experience of expanding internationally? Have you fully researched the associated costs and time management strains this could put on your current senior management team? Businesses can often underestimate the time it takes to penetrate into a new market and what resources are required to gain a market share.
Our team at ARM have experience in setting up subsidiaries and branches throughout Europe, Asia and the Americas and can support you in liaising with professional experts in your new market.
