Once the investment is completed, filings need to be made to Companies House notifying them of the new shares issued to the investor. Also, the company books (mentioned above) need to be updated. To ensure this is all done correctly, we recommend that you ask a lawyer to help with this process. It is important that all the company’s share records are properly updated because, for example, if the company goes on to be sold in future, any prospective buyer of your company will check that the shareholding records are correct with you warranting this is the case. If updates or corrective entries need to be made, this can lead to an expense that could have been easily avoided if the paperwork was all dealt with at the time. MBM Commercial will be able to assist with dealing with all relevant filings and register updates post-investment to ensure this doesn’t happen.
