Document background
The Confirmation of Directorship Letter is a fundamental corporate governance document used when appointing new directors to a company's board in Malaysia. This document is typically issued following a board resolution approving the director's appointment and needs to comply with the requirements of the Malaysian Companies Act 2016. The letter serves multiple purposes: it formally confirms the appointment, outlines the terms and conditions of the directorship, specifies remuneration and benefits, details responsibilities and expectations, and ensures compliance with relevant Malaysian corporate laws and regulations. It's an essential document for both the company's records and the director's reference, providing clarity on the appointment terms and helping prevent future disputes.
