Document background
Annual General Meeting Minutes are a crucial corporate governance document required under Hong Kong Companies Ordinance (Cap. 622) that provides an official record of a company's mandatory yearly general meeting. The document must be prepared and maintained as part of the company's statutory records, capturing key decisions such as financial statement adoption, director appointments, and auditor selection. These minutes serve multiple purposes: they provide legal evidence of decisions made, demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements, and create a historical record of the company's major decisions. The document is particularly important in Hong Kong's corporate governance framework, where it may be subject to review by regulators, courts, or stakeholders.
