Yes, provided the transition is properly documented, replacement governance is ready, and the corporate records and filings are updated correctly.
Yes, provided the transition is properly documented, replacement governance is ready, and the corporate records and filings are updated correctly.
Where a temporary appointment is used, the transition should be planned from the start: what events trigger the change, who signs the resolutions, and how the records are updated.
A clean handover usually matters just as much as the initial filing because banks, counterparties, and corporate records need the transition to be clear and timely.
Key points
- Plan the resignation path early.
- Record updates should be part of the handover.
- Transitions affect counterparties as well as filings.
