Corporate Services & Compliance
The Firm acts as company secretary to a number of companies registered in Nigeria. This Team advises a number of local and foreign clients on corporate matters which affect their daily operations vis-à-vis Nigerian company laws. These services ranges from matters pertaining to incorporation, corporate restructuring, corporate governance, statutory filings, meetings, winding-up procedures, immigration laws, labour & employment laws etc.
Having served a number of local and multi-national organisations on varied number of transactions relating to company secretarial matters, our lawyers have developed significant expertise in the regulatory matters involved in company operations. We have a thorough understanding of Nigerian law and specific regulations relating to this sector and we have over time established a good working relationship with regulatory authorities like the Corporate Affairs Commission, Securities and Exchange Commission, Nigerian Stock Exchange, Nigerian Immigration Service etc.
We create processes to monitor our client’s compliance with the law and their own established codes of conduct and policies. We also assist our clients by setting up compliance programmes with relevant legislation as well as Nigeria’s code of corporate governance and consistently monitor the company’s progress in meeting them. Our company secretarial services are rendered in conformity with international best practice.
