Corporate law in Funchal

Constitution and structuring of companies

Choosing the type of company structure, drafting the articles of association, defining the capital and shareholding structure, and registration formalities. The drafting of the articles of association deserves particular attention, as it is in this document that decision-making blocks and the departure of partners are resolved in advance.

Shareholder agreements and relationships between partners

Agreements that regulate the exercise of voting rights, the entry of new partners, pre-emptive rights, and exit rules are the most effective instrument for preventing conflicts in family businesses and partnerships between people who know each other well.

Corporate bodies and managers' responsibilities

Duties and responsibilities of managers and administrators, minutes and resolutions, appointments and dismissals. A manager is liable, under certain circumstances, with their personal assets, and it is worthwhile to know the limits before exceeding them.

Transfer of shares and reorganizations

The purchase and sale of shares and stocks, the entry of investors, mergers and spin-offs, and the due diligence that must precede any of these operations. In acquisitions, the most undervalued risk is usually tax or labor-related, not corporate.

Registration and compliance obligations

Central Register of Beneficial Owners, anti-corruption obligations applicable to companies of a certain size, data protection and other obligations that fall on companies and whose non-compliance is sanctioned.
