Company Deeds get Simpler


 
Companies can now execute documents under deed without having to have the document signed by two officers (directors or the company secretary) or affixing the company’s seal.

Now, provided it is allowed under the company’s articles of association, all that is required is the signature of a single director, provided the signature is properly witnessed.

For more details see The Companies Act 2006, part 4, section 44, which came into force on 6 April 2008.
