Company Formation

Forming a company in a foreign jurisdiction is never a simple matter. Obligations, procedures, timelines, languages, and costs all vary widely from country to country. Our members are local experts and can advise on cross-border company formations, offering services to help with company formation globally.

EIS and SEIS

The Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) and the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) are UK Government incentives that encourage innovation by granting private investors a significant tax break when investing in early-stage, ‘high-risk’ companies. UK Company SEIS and EIS Schemes are highly attractive for both investors who are seeking to put their money and trust into energetic and aspiring companies, and for fledging companies that require venture capital. Our member firms are on hand to advise on how to apply for both schemes.

Secretarial Services

Company secretarial services are not the traditional work of a secretary, as the name might suggest, but rather it refers to the level of administrative function within a business that ensures good corporate governance, effective administration, and compliance with legislation, law,s and regulations that govern business and industry.

Managing corporate governance is essential for businesses. Your company must adhere to the Companies Act 2006, comply with the law and legislation that governs their business, and stringently maintain records, such as the holding of meetings, the conduct of board members, any interactions with shareholders and stakeholders, and any engagement with government authorities. Our member firms can advise on Secretarial Services. Contact us to learn more.
