Document background
Annual General Meeting Resolutions are fundamental corporate documents required under Nigerian law, specifically the Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020. These resolutions document the decisions made by shareholders during the company's mandatory annual general meeting, which must be held within 18 months of incorporation and subsequently once every calendar year, with no more than 15 months between meetings. The document records both ordinary and special resolutions, covering statutory requirements such as financial statement approval, dividend declarations, and director/auditor appointments. It serves multiple purposes including regulatory compliance, corporate record-keeping, and providing evidence of shareholder approval for various corporate actions. The resolution must be filed with the Corporate Affairs Commission within 15 days of passing.
