Digital AGMs and signatures: legislative determination

17th Nov, 2020

The Government has formally extended the ability for companies to convene annual general meetings (AGMs) and other prescribed meetings entirely online until March 2021.

This extension allows company boards to:

  • provide notice of AGMs to shareholders using email;
  • achieve a quorum with shareholders attending online; and
  • hold AGMs meetings online, with shareholders able to put questions to board members online and vote online.

Company officers are also permitted to use electronic signatures to meet the relevant legal requirements.
