Corporate secretarial

Any organisation operating in Singapore and this region faces regulatory and reporting requirements, which vary from country to country. Meeting these obligations can impose a heavy administrative burden and be compounded if operating across regional borders. At Baker Tilly, we are committed to providing professional corporate secretarial services to ensure effective compliance through our associate, Park Crescent Services Pte Ltd. Clients are assured that our core values of integrity and passion driving professionalism extend throughout our network.

How Baker Tilly Can Help

Incorporation of Companies and Other Business Entities

Whether the legal entity to be set up is a local limited company, a branch of a foreign company, limited liability partnership, limited partnership, sole proprietor, representative office, society, or charity, Baker Tilly will offer advice and attend to its registration.

We act on behalf of our clients to apply for the company name, prepare and execute the incorporation documents and lodge the relevant documents with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority/Registry of Societies/International Enterprise Singapore. We also provide a company kit, comprising a minutes book, statutory registers, and common seal.

Corporate Secretarial Maintenance Services

We advise registered local companies on the best corporate secretarial practice and corporate governance. We also look after and maintain statutory registers and records, prepare minutes and resolutions, and file statutory returns in compliance with the Companies Act. Our staff convene, facilitate and attend directors’ and shareholders’ meetings, and record and prepare the minutes.

We can also offer assistance with memorandum and articles of association alterations, changes in directors, secretaries, or auditors, changes in corporate name, allotments of new shares, transfer of shares, rights and bonus issues, share option schemes, reduction of capital, etc.

Employment Pass Services

We collate all necessary documents, complete the relevant forms and submit them to the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) on behalf of our clients for new applications, renewal, and cancellation of employment passes.

Outsourcing

All business entities and even not-for-profit organisations are required by law to maintain accounts to safeguard the interests of stakeholders and ensure proper discharge of duties by officeholders. Increasingly, organisations of every size are discovering that outsourcing their accounting function is financially viable and improves efficiency. It frees them from the high cost of maintaining an accounting department while ensuring timely information for decision-making and reporting. With accounting outsourced, these organisations do not need to be concerned with staff turnover, career planning, training or absenteeism. They get accounting support and can focus on their operations. TFW Management Services Pte Ltd, an associate of Baker Tilly, specialises in providing a complete range of accounting, payroll and related services to fit any business need.
