Law Debenture expands its reach in corporate governance services

LWDB

Law Debenture has built a corporate secretarial business with more than 350 clients, over 5,000 entities under management and a team of more than 70 specialists. The business operates from the UK, Ireland, Hong Kong and the United States, with partner coverage across more than 120 jurisdictions. That gives Law Debenture the ability to support companies with governance and compliance requirements across multiple markets.

Its work includes company secretarial support, board and committee administration, annual reports, statutory filings, AGM management, governance reviews and transaction support. Clients can use Law Debenture for specific projects, temporary support or a fully outsourced company secretarial function.

The company also provides Global Entity Management services. These cover subsidiary governance, annual compliance, statutory filings, incorporations, share issuances, restructurings, corporate health checks and registered office services. A large part of this work is tied to ongoing corporate obligations. Companies need to maintain records, make filings and meet governance standards regardless of wider market conditions.

The business also works with listed companies, investment trusts, financial services groups and other regulated organisations. It supports companies preparing for public listings, where governance requirements become more demanding and the need for accurate administration increases.

Identity verification is another area of activity. Law Debenture is a Companies House Authorised Corporate Services Provider and offers verification services for UK directors and people with significant control.

The company says it has already supported thousands of individuals through the verification process. This service is becoming more important as requirements under the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act are introduced.

Law Debenture Corporation plc (LON:LWDB) provides a wider range of services including corporate and pension trusts, process agent services, treasury management, corporate services including for special purpose vehicles, structured finance administration and whistleblowing services.
