Typically, a board of directors will create corporate resolutions and sign them at a board meeting. Before the meeting, all board members should receive a meeting agenda that includes any decisions or actions to be resolved. Resolutions must follow a format approved by the state where the business is registered.
A corporate resolution is a written document created by the board of directors of a company detailing a binding corporate action. A board of directors is a group of people that act as a governing body on behalf of the shareholders of a company.
The bylaws also define the structure of the business, its purpose, how the corporation will run its affairs, and the duties and responsibilities of those involved. Resolutions can be used for many things, and the bylaws often require resolutions for certain tasks or decisions.
Corporate resolutions are necessary business documents for corporations, whether they be for-profit or nonprofit.
