What does a company secretary actually do?
Your company secretary is the statutory officer who keeps the company legal: lodging filings with SSM, preparing board and shareholders' resolutions, maintaining the statutory registers and beneficial ownership records, filing the annual return, hosting the registered office, and tracking every compliance deadline — accounts, e-Invois onboarding, BO updates — so directors don't have to.

The practical difference between firms is who does this. With us, the person answering your message is the licensed person doing the filing — not a ticketing queue routing to an unnamed processor. Same team as companies.com.my, doing this since 2011.
