Company records, registers and filing

After its incorporation, there are various obligations that a company must observe on an ongoing basis as it carries out its day-to-day business.

Some of those obligations are triggered as a result of changes to the company's particulars, including:

1. •

   the appointment, retirement, resignation or removal of the company's officers

2. •

   changes in the registered details of the company's officers

3. •

   transfers and issues of shares resulting in changes to the company's membership

4. •

   changes to the company's name

5. •

   changes to the company's constitution

6. •

   granting charges over the company's assets

Other obligations are ongoing (rather than being triggered by a change of some sort) and relate to transparency and record keeping. Such obligations include the requirements for companies:

1. •

   to make trading disclosures about itself and its business, and

2. •

   to keep registers of information
