FAQ
In general, companies require a letter or similar notification from investors having a sufficient number of shares, demanding a special meeting and stating the purpose for that meeting. The company can then set the date for the meeting, typically within a 30 to 90 day time period after receipt of the demand.
The members (including shareholders) of the company are entitled to attend and vote at the AGM. Members can cast their votes by a physical ballot or postal ballot or through e-voting. Members can appoint proxies to attend an AGM and vote on their behalf only when it is a poll vote.
The formalities for calling (or convening) shareholders' meetings are much stricter than those for board meetings. At least fourteen clear days' written notice must be given to all shareholders, directors and any auditor. This is regardless of whether resolutions are to be passed as ordinary or special resolutions.
Company members In many companies, every shareholder or guarantor can attend and vote at general meetings. However, it depends on the rights attached to each member's shares (in a company limited by shares) or class of membership (in a company limited by guarantee).
An Annual General Meeting (AGM) is a yearly gathering where a company's shareholders and board of directors meet to discuss important aspects of the company. At the AGM, the directors present an annual report to update shareholders on the company's performance, strategy, and management.
AGM attendees include the company's directors, shareholders, senior management, company secretaries, senior management, legal representatives, and auditors. Companies must give shareholders at least 21 days' notice before an AGM.
The AGM is attended by the board of directors, senior management personnel and the auditors. The law mandates the Chairperson of the Audit Committee and of the Stakeholders Relationship Committee to attend the meeting.
First Shareholders' Meeting Once this meeting has been completed, the directors can call a shareholders' meeting where the shareholders will elect directors (or re-elect the initial directors) and confirm the by-laws and auditor.
The first AGM must be held within 18 months of the company's incorporation, with subsequent AGMs held annually, ensuring no more than 15 months elapse between meetings. This regular scheduling ensures timely review and approval of financial and operational matters.
(a) initially, no more than 18 months after the company's date of incorporation; and. (b) thereafter, once in every calendar year, but no more than 15 months after the date of the previous annual general meeting, or within an extended time allowed by the Companies Tribunal, on good cause shown.
