Company Secretary Resolution Templates

A library of resolution templates built into Konsise. Directors’ resolutions, shareholders’ resolutions, and special resolutions are available in PDF and Word formats, with new templates added frequently. Every material decision a company takes needs to exist on paper before it exists anywhere else. A director appointment, a change of registered address, a dividend declaration, an amendment to the MOI, none of it is properly done until the resolution is signed, dated and filed, where you can find it again. Most company secretaries rebuild those documents from a Word file that somebody adapted years ago from an unknown template. Konsise replaces that with a maintained library that sits alongside the entity records the resolutions belong to.

Use it as a PDF or open it in Word and adjust it.

Every template in the library is available in both formats because the two get used for different things. The PDF is the finished product. Clean, consistently formatted, ready for circulation. The Word version can be opened and adjusted. Then you are working from a properly drafted base instead of starting from a blank page.

The library grows frequently

Company secretarial work does not stand still. Requirements shift, processes change, and the resolution that no one needed for the last 5 years is suddenly requested 3 times in a year. New templates are added to the library frequently, which means the coverage you have on the day you sign up will not be the same in six months.
