End-to-End Support: From Boardroom Governance to Audit-Ready Reporting, We Handle It All

At Alba Legal, we understand that navigating corporate governance, compliance, and financial reporting can be complex and time-consuming. That’s why we offer end-to-end support, helping coordinate the legal work from corporate decisions to the records needed for reporting and independent audit.

Comprehensive Governance & Compliance Solutions

Strong governance is the backbone of any successful organization. Our experts provide:

– Boardroom Governance – Structuring effective board meetings, drafting policies, and advising on applicable legal requirements.
– Corporate Secretarial Services – Managing statutory filings, minute-taking, and shareholder communications.
– Regulatory Compliance – Reviewing applicable legal obligations and coordinating financial-regulatory questions with the relevant professionals.

Legal Coordination for Financial Reporting & Audit

Transparency and accuracy in financial reporting are non-negotiable. We help you stay audit-ready with:
– Financial Reporting & Disclosures – Reviewing the legal disclosures and corporate approvals associated with financial reporting, in coordination with the company’s accountants. Preparation and signing responsibilities remain with the persons designated by law and the engagement; legal coordination is not a substitute for accounting services.
– Internal Controls & Risk Management – Advising on governance and legal controls, while management and the relevant accounting or audit professionals retain responsibility for their respective work.
– Audit Coordination – Coordinating document requests, corporate records and legal confirmations with the independent auditor. An audit opinion is issued by the appropriately qualified and appointed auditor, not through legal coordination.

Why Choose Alba Legal?
– Expertise – Our legal advice can be coordinated with the company’s accountants and appropriately qualified independent auditors, with distinct responsibilities.
– Efficiency – We streamline processes, saving you time and resources.
– Peace of Mind – Clear allocation of legal, accounting and audit responsibilities helps management address issues before they delay reporting.

Under Law No. 9901/2008, as amended, company organs retain their statutory duties; for a Sh.p.k., Article 95 includes administrators’ responsibilities for proper accounting records and preparation, signing and submission of the relevant statements and reports. Engaging advisers does not remove those duties. Whether an independent statutory audit is required must be assessed under the applicable accounting, audit and sectoral rules. Our support concerns legal advice and coordination; it does not guarantee an unqualified audit opinion or a particular audit result.
