Governance is our business

Corporate Governance & Risk Management matter. An organisation’s approach to Corporate Governance can be the difference between success and disaster.

At Agends we specialise in providing legal, corporate risk & governance advice and solutions that are tailored to suit your business and your people. Whether it be minute taking for a single meeting, a complete review of your organisation’s compliance obligations and policies, or a fully outsourced General Counsel, Company Secretarial & Corporate Risk solution, Agends has legal & governance covered, allowing you to get on with running your business with confidence.

OUTSOURCED SOLUTIONS

We specialise in offering clients a fully outsourced legal, company secretarial & risk management solution, providing the benefits of an experienced General Counsel & Company Secretary at a fraction of the cost of a full-time resource. We take the time to get to know your business and your team to ensure open lines of communication and cost-effective services. We also work closely with outsourced CFO and Accounting providers to offer a full-service outsourced risk, finance and legal solution to organisations of all sizes.

Compliance & Risk

From one off compliance reviews and investigations to a complete overhaul of your organisational policy and risk framework, Agends is able to provide an independent, expert analysis of your risk and compliance issues. In addition to in house experience across a range of industries, we work closely with external consultants and advisers to ensure our service is tailored to the particular needs of your industry and organisation.

LEGAL ADVICE

At Agends we pride ourselves on our commitment to getting to know your business and your people, so we understand the commercial drivers behind a decision, not just the legal implications. Our advice is pragmatic and personal, delivered in plain English and designed to let you get on with doing business.
We advise and assist clients on a full range of commercial legal issues including drafting and reviewing contracts, shareholder & corporate matters and disputes & litigation

ENHANCING BOARD EFFECTIVENESS

We work with directors, secretaries and management to ensure clear lines of communication are in place and directors are given the information they need to make timely and effective decisions. We also work with boards to draft company constitutions, clearly define the director responsibilities, establish delegation frameworks & sub-committees charters and develop meeting schedules & agenda.
