The Legal Risk Score of a Shareholders' Resolution to Change Company Name (Circulating Resolution) Template is Low
Our legal team have marked this document as low risk considering:
- There is a risk that the resolution to change the company name might not be communicated effectively to all relevant parties or regulatory bodies, leading to potential legal and operational discrepancies.
- The document does not specify the new name of the company, which could lead to confusion or errors during the process of updating records with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission.
- The resolution relies on the unanimous agreement of all shareholders entitled to vote, posing a risk if not all shareholders are aligned or if any shareholder changes their mind, potentially delaying or complicating the process.
