FAQ
A general meeting is a members' meeting, but certain non-members may also be entitled to attend. It's important to check the articles of association and any shareholders' agreement to determine the rules and restrictions for attending general meetings.
Annual General Meeting (AGM) During these meetings, corporate board members present annual financial reports and accounts to be ratified by shareholders. Shareholders can also question board decisions and vote on the appointment, election, or removal of company directors.
AGMs are mandatory for both public and private companies. All shareholders are legally obligated to receive an invitation to these meetings. The board of directors should also be represented. An auditor may also be present if the organization is subject to an audit requirement.
In the case of a private company regardless of the number of members, two members must be present for the quorum to be met for a meeting.
All shareholders must be notified of the format, date, time, and place of the meeting. How far in advance notices should be distributed may depend on your state, but generally, they should be sent out more than 10 days prior to the meeting, but less than 60 days.
Not complying with regulations regarding annual shareholder meetings can put your company, and its owners, at personal risk for liability.

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.
Your charity's governing document will usually state who can attend and vote at an AGM. For a charity with a membership there may be different voting rights for different types of members. However, done well, it's an opportunity to bring everyone together, so consider inviting others, even if they can't vote.
If your business is set up and registered as a Corporation, you're required by law to hold an annual shareholder meeting and to document the meeting with minutes.
