Corporate Health Check
Validate your corporate data and compliance status with confidence.
Our corporate health check service is tailored to you and works to ensure that your corporate affairs are in good standing.
Keeping you compliant
Once engaged, our team conducts a thorough review encompassing statutory registers, Companies House records and legal papers to highlight potential problems and deficiencies. Where needed, we will provide you with a detailed remediation plan, helping to mitigate potential risks of non-compliance, and the associated enforcement actions that could follow.
During the health check, our team will take a review of your:
Statutory registers
Companies House records
Board minutes and resolutions, and shareholder resolutions
Articles of association
Once complete, we will prepare a detailed report setting out any gaps or concerns that are identified as part of the health check. Our report will include a risk assessment to help you distinguish between material and non-material issues and, where needed, we will also provide you with a detailed remediation plan containing practical steps to help resolve any issues identified.
When to undertake a health check
A corporate health check can be undertaken for any business. We find that many companies will benefit from this service when:
Preparing for a merger or acquisition
Changing professional service provider
Statutory registers have not been properly created or maintained
Ensuring that people with significant control information is up-to-date and accurate (noting that professional firms are required to check that this information is accurate when they onboard a client and report any discrepancies to Companies House)
Ensuring that the company is operating in accordance with its articles of association and the Companies Act 2006
Understanding the benefits of a corporate health check
Buzzacott’s corporate health check delivers peace of mind by ensuring your company’s corporate data and compliance status are accurate, up-to-date, and fully aligned with legal requirements. This proactive service helps protect your business from the financial and reputational risks associated with non-compliance.
By identifying discrepancies in public records at Companies House and highlighting breaches of the Companies Act, the health check can help you to take corrective action before issues escalate.
