The Companies Act 2006 - a practical guide
Drawn largely from Jordans own day-to-day experience of the Act, this seminar will benefit anyone faced with the practical implications of the new legislation.
Solicitors, accountants, company secretaries and those with corporate compliance responsibilities will gain a useful insight into the issues faced by companies and their advisers since the Act’s implementation last October. They will be able to take away useful, practical solutions they can put into practice.
During the seminar, Jordans’ expert speakers will explore topics such as:
1) The Companies Act – a review of key changes
2) Constitution – articles - changes and updating
3) Share capital – reduction of capital and other recent changes
4) Practical session covering recent experiences and solutions
