Corporate Governance
Covid-19 and Statutory Registers
In light of government lockdown measures and the practice of social distancing many companies have been left unable to access their statutory registers. What happens if my company does not have statutory registers?
Property Management Services
We can assist once the management company has been handed over. We act as registered office for many management companies and can also transfer shares when a property is subsequently bought or sold.

Are you breaching your corporate governance requirements in lockdown?
If you are unsure of what the requirements are or whether you are meeting those requirements, or maybe you would just like some assistance or advice then please contact us today to request a due diligence review of your company’s corporate governance for £250 + VAT.
