Why Company Secretarial Services Matter

Many businesses overlook the importance of company secretarial duties until compliance issues arise. A company secretary plays a crucial role in ensuring that:

  • Corporate filings and CIPC compliance deadlines are met.
  • Board meetings, minutes, and resolutions are documented correctly.
  • Directors and shareholders adhere to legal corporate governance structures.

Without proper corporate secretarial support, companies face the risk of legal penalties, operational disruptions, and governance failures.

At Snaid & Morris, we bridge this gap—providing efficient, cost-effective company secretarial services that ensure your business remains legally sound and well-structured.

FAQs – Company Secretarial Services & Compliance

Not all companies require a company secretary, but certain businesses—particularly those governed by their Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI)—must appoint one. Public companies and state-owned enterprises (SOEs) are legally required to have a company secretary under the Companies Act, 2008.

A company secretary ensures that the business remains compliant with CIPC filings, board meeting governance, and corporate record-keeping. Their duties include maintaining statutory records, preparing resolutions, and advising on corporate regulations.

Failure to submit annual filings and maintain compliance can lead to:

  • CIPC deregistration, meaning the company ceases to exist legally.
  • Legal liability for directors due to governance failures.
  • Fines and penalties for non-compliance.
