Document background
The Holding Company Operating Agreement serves as the fundamental governance document for corporate groups operating under a holding company structure in Australia. This agreement is essential when establishing or formalizing the relationship between a parent company and its subsidiaries, typically implemented during corporate restructuring, group formation, or governance updates. The document addresses key aspects required under Australian corporate law, including compliance with the Corporations Act 2001 and relevant regulatory requirements. It encompasses crucial elements such as corporate governance, financial controls, reporting structures, risk management, and subsidiary oversight. The agreement is particularly important for businesses seeking to establish clear lines of authority, standardize group operations, and ensure effective control mechanisms across their corporate structure.
