English

Company secretaries in recent years have been cast as a group who charge a fee but provide little value. A good company secretary however will protect the directors and shareholders in the company, by ensuring they follow the Companies Act.

Compliance with the Companies Act is a serious issue. Mistakes can mean that changes later become invalid in the court of law. Worse still, a secretary who is guilty of an offence under the Companies Act is liable for fines and even imprisonment.

近年、秘書役はグループ単位で選ばれ、料金を請求するもののほとんど価値は提供してこなかった。しかし、優秀な秘書役は、取締役と株主が確実に会社法に従うようにさせることで彼らを保護する。

会社法の順守は重要課題である。間違いを犯せば、変更が後日裁判所で無効ということになりうる。それどころか、会社法の下の違法行為で有罪となった秘書役は、罰金を支払う義務があり懲役さえもありうる。
