Limited company concept was first introduced in 1600 under the royal charter.

A limited company is primarily an incorporated platform which facilitates to run a business under specific company rules. A company itself is responsible for all its operations owns all its income, expenses, assets and liabilities in its own right without any connection to its directors. After paying corporation tax on its profits it can then share the remaining profit with its shareholders.

A private or a family company owners are by law liable for its debts but only equivalent to the amount of capital they invested and their personal assets are considered completely distinct from company finances. A company can be limited by guarantee or limited by share.

Company law has greatly evolved over times in terms of corporate obligations, responsibilities and statutory reporting requirements. The law confers certain duties upon company director and/or shareholder to conduct the company operations. Such as:

  • File Company accounts with HMRC and companies house
  • Tax computations and payment of Corporation tax
  • Keep record of all transaction according to the accepted accountancy practices
  • Ensure statutory accounts are “true and fair view” of its company operations
