What is an Annual General Meeting?
The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is one of the main governing bodies of a corporation. There, the owners of the company, the shareholders, adopt resolutions on matters determined by the law and the corporate statutes. The AGM has a set structure, established by the Corporate Enterprises Act. The AGM can be ordinary or extraordinary. Ordinary AGMs are held once a year, in the first six months following the end of the previous year, to approve: the management of the company, the accounts from the previous year, and the distribution of profits, among other matters. All other meetings are considered extraordinary.
