Smaller Limited
Companies Management ServicesSince every
client’s exact circumstances are always different we think that it is important
to be able to discuss
your requirements directly with you If that is the case,
here are some frequently asked questions which may help. If after reading this
page you think we can be of assistance to your business we will be very
pleased to hear from you to agree a mutually convenient time for an
initial meeting.
Why should our company use “Management Services”? Often
with a small limited company the administration of the business is not
seen as a priority but this can be a serious mistake in terms of the
efficient running of the company. This
is partially because with the legal structure of a limited company it is
essential that matters of administration are properly dealt with to
comply with such technical requirements as the filing of the company
annual return and the financial accounts with the Registrar of
Companies. Such
formal matters as these can often be dealt with the companies’
auditors but this is not always the case and there is generally a cost
implication in using expensive services of accountants for routine
clerical matters. What do you do ? The
service we provide (while covering the formal requirements of the
Companies Acts ) goes very much further and we think that it delivers
value to your business far beyond ensuring that your company meets its
minimal statutory requirements. With
most clients we are appointed as company secretaries and as such we
attend every board meeting, (having prepared in advance the agenda for
the meeting), take the minutes, and within a few days circulate them to
all directors. We
are also able,generally, from our wealth of business experience to contribute at
the meeting usefully as required on matters of law or business strategy.
Why is your involvement worthwhile? The
discipline that comes from having a regular structure for the management
of the company is of incalculable value. An
outside “Third Party” can direct the organisation in a way that is
almost impossible for the directors, who are taken up day to day with
the business of the company. Problems
(financial or otherwise) which otherwise might be neglected through
oversight or embarrassment can addressed far earlier and more
effectively than they would be because of the external perspective which
we are able to bring. There is the benefit of “system” being applied to the company's management which the objective and disinterested perspective of an outsider is needed to achieve.
What does your service cost? On the basis of one meeting a month, which most clients find to be perfectly adequate, we charge £100 + VAT per month for the preparation of the agenda for each meeting, taking and circulating the minutes, and dealing with the annual statutory filing requirements of the company with the Registrar of Companies. We can also in the case of smaller companies at an additional cost (which of course can only be estimated on a case by case basis) provide assistance with book-keeping to help produce the accounts for auditing by the company’s accountants.
We are think that after we are able to discuss your specific
requirements with you in detail, we may be a valuable and cost
effective part of your company’s organisation. We look forward to hearing from you
