Corporate Secretariat
At Muma & Kanjama Advocates, corporate success is built on more than profits—it relies on compliance, transparency, and strong governance. Our Corporate Secretarial Practice Unit helps businesses meet statutory obligations under the Companies Act, 2015, the Mwongozo Code of Governance for State Corporations, and sector-specific regulations, while establishing governance frameworks that enhance credibility and sustainability.
Unlike many service providers, we go beyond administrative filings. We combine legal expertise, governance insight, and strategic advisory to deliver solutions that anticipate risks and add long-term value. For nearly two decades, we have acted for leading corporations, multinationals, and state entities, earning trust through reliability, discretion, and results-driven support.
Our Corporate Secretarial Services
Strategic Company Formation & Structuring – We assist local and international clients in setting up companies, subsidiaries, and branches, crafting constitutions, shareholder agreements, and governance frameworks tailored to growth, compliance, and operational efficiency.
Compliance That Safeguards Businesses – Compliance is more than filing returns. We maintain statutory registers, manage Beneficial Ownership filings, and coordinate with the BRS, CMA, and sector regulators. Our proactive systems detect and mitigate risks before they escalate.
Boardroom Excellence – We prepare board packs, resolutions, and minutes that meet regulatory and investor expectations. We advise directors on fiduciary duties, convene AGMs and EGMs, and help boards operate transparently and effectively. Our work implementing the Mwongozo Code for state corporations demonstrates our ability to elevate governance to international standards.
Transactional Secretarial Support – We support high-value transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, share transfers, and corporate reorganizations. Our experience acting for large corporations ensures meticulous handling of corporate due diligence, listings, and financing processes.
Governance & ESG Advisory – Modern organizations must meet stakeholder expectations on governance and sustainability. We conduct governance audits, implement ESG compliance frameworks, and design risk management strategies that enhance resilience and investor confidence.
