Yes. A corporate resolution is a formal written action by the board or shareholders that authorizes a specific corporate action. It creates an official record of the decision and the authority granted to individuals to act on behalf of the company. This document then guides execution and future governance.
Typically, the board or the shareholders approve the resolution, depending on the action. In some cases, officers may sign on behalf of the company if proper delegation is in place and the governance documents permit it. Clear approval ensures authority and reduces risk of disputes.
Timing varies with complexity. Simple actions can be drafted and approved relatively quickly, while complex transactions may require more time for review and stakeholder input. We help you set realistic timelines.
Financing often requires a resolution to authorize lenders’ rights, security interests, and related covenants. The resolution provides formal approval and reduces documentation gaps.
Yes. A single resolution can authorize multiple related actions if the language clearly describes each authorized action and the scope of authority remains consistent.
If you operate multiple entities, you may need separate resolutions for each entity or a single cross-entity action with appropriate scope and clear attribution to each entity.
Notarization is not always required, but certain lenders, regulatory filings, or international transactions may call for it. We verify requirements based on your action and jurisdiction.
Store resolutions in the corporate records with indexed folders, backups, and accessibility for authorized personnel. Keeping organized records supports governance and audits.
If changes are needed after adoption, a new resolution or amendment can be drafted and adopted following the same formal process to maintain a clear, auditable record.
