FAQ
There are two main types of resolutions in a limited company: ordinary and special. Shareholders use both in situations where the directors have no authority to make a decision. An ordinary resolution can be described as 'ordinary' or routine decisions made by the shareholders.
A shareholders' resolution can either be passed during a formal meeting of the shareholders or in writing (without holding an actual meeting). Regardless of the method, the resolutions must be passed in ance with certain statutory, and possibly contractual, requirements.
In most jurisdictions, including the United States, corporate resolutions refer to key decisions made by the board of directors concerning the most important corporate actions. Other decisions which require voting by shareholders are referred to as shareholder resolutions or annual resolutions.
Can a board resolution be signed by one director? A resolution is generally only signed by one director if a formal meeting does not take place – but that's rare.
Resolutions can be passed by directors without holding a directors' meeting. These are called circulating resolutions. Check the rule book to see how this can be done. All directors entitled to vote on the resolution must sign a statement that says they are in favour of the resolution set out in the document.
A shareholders' resolution can either be passed during a formal meeting of the shareholders or in writing (without holding an actual meeting). Regardless of the method, the resolutions must be passed in ance with certain statutory, and possibly contractual, requirements.
While shareholders have significant influence through their voting rights as well as the ability to approve major decisions, they do not have the authority to directly instruct directors on how to manage the company on a day-to-day basis.
Every shareholder is given the opportunity to vote and attend meetings, but it's not a requirement. Institutional investors or those with a large position in the company may attend and vote in person. Those who choose not to attend in person but still want to make their opinion known can vote by proxy.
