Why Do You Need a Customised Articles of Association?

Our service helps you draft, amend or change Articles of Association​ to align with your business objectives and regulatory compliance.

The problem with Model Articles
  • Lack of investor protection

    Model Articles do not include pre-emption rights, share transfer restrictions, or rules for multiple share classes. This setup works for a business with just one director, but it does not suit a property SPV with several investors.

  • No lender provisions

    Mortgage lenders usually want to see consent clauses and share transfer restrictions before lending to an SPV. Model Articles do not include these requirements.

  • Governance gaps that surface at the worst moment

    If there is a deadlock between 50/50 shareholders, a director leaves during a deal, or there is a dispute over dividend priority, When these issues come up, you need 75% shareholder approval just to make changes.

What customised Articles give your Limited Company
  • Defined rights for every share class

    Ordinary, preference, and alphabet shares each have their own voting rights, dividend entitlements, and transfer rules, all clearly set out in the documents from the start.

  • Pre-emption rights and transfer controls

    Current shareholders have the first chance to buy shares before they are offered to someone outside the company. Only approved buyers can receive shares, which helps keep ownership as agreed.

  • Governance built for property deals

    Rules for voting on major decisions, obtaining lender approval, setting limits on director authority, and handling deadlocks are put in place before they are needed.
