Companies Act (Compendium of Changes 2014)

The Companies Act (Cap. 50) experienced its last major amendments in 2005. Since then, there has been no substantial update to the Act. After a gap of nine years, Parliament has now passed a new set of major amendments on 8 October 2014.

This book contains the recent key amendments of the Act and also provides a historical view of the amended sections to ease the understanding of the changes. The key amendments of the Act include but are not limited to amendments affecting:
- Shareholdings
- The use of Proxies 
- Requirement for Statutory Audits 
- Requirements relating to Financial Assistance

Also included in this edition are practitioner notes on the various amendments. These notes give a practical grounding of the changes and how they impact current corporate law practice. 

This book serves as the most up-to-date reference guide for lawyers, in-house counsels, company secretaries, company directors, auditors, accountants, regulators, academics, students, and all those who are engaged or interested in the dynamic practice of Company Law.
