Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance on Switching to Us
Do you need a company secretary?
Yes. Every private limited company in Malaysia must appoint a company secretary within 30 days from its date of incorporation.
Why do we need corporate secretarial services?
All companies must comply with the Companies Act 2016. Ensuring that your company has complied with the statutory requirements is not easy as this is not your strength. Further, the penalties for non-compliance may be hefty. For peace of mind to run your business smoothly, leave the compliance management to professionals to ensure that things are done right the first time.
What are the benefits in outsourcing corporate secretarial services?
Unless the corporate structure and volume of work justify the need for an internal corporate secretary, outsourcing secretarial work will be a more cost-efficient option. Further, the secretarial matters will be handled by a professional team, which minimises any potential disruption and inconvenience that may arise. You will be notified of any action required on a timely basis.
