A company's life does not stop at its incorporation: each year, obligations recur (approval of accounts, updating of registers, RBE filings) and the slightest oversight exposes the company and its directors. Rigorous corporate secretarial work avoids these blind spots.
Cerno Law Firm takes on this recurring support for companies, holding companies and groups: we maintain the registers, organise the meetings and document governance, with a logic of continuous compliance.
Corporate secretarial services in Luxembourg: when should you call on the firm?
You must keep general meetings, statutory registers and beneficial owner filings up to date each year.
In-house, these recurring tasks are often postponed, poorly documented or forgotten.
What happens if you do nothing?
Non-compliant registers, an outdated RBE, irregular meetings, decisions open to challenge for lack of minutes.
Poorly maintained governance weakens the company during an audit, a sale or a dispute between shareholders.
