Document background
A Unanimous Board Resolution is a critical corporate governance document used in German companies when the board of directors needs to formally document their unanimous decisions on significant company matters. This document type is particularly important in the German legal context, where corporate decisions must strictly comply with the Aktiengesetz (AktG) for stock corporations or GmbH-Gesetz for limited liability companies. The resolution records the unanimous agreement of all board members on matters such as major transactions, corporate policies, strategic decisions, or regulatory compliance matters. It serves as legal evidence of proper corporate decision-making and is often required by third parties, regulators, or for commercial register entries. The Unanimous Board Resolution must be carefully drafted to ensure it meets all formal requirements under German law and provides clear authorization for implementing the approved actions.
