Board of Directors Resolutions
Board of Directors Resolutions (or Board of Directors Resolutions) are formal documents that define and record official decisions taken by a Board of Directors. They are therefore legally binding for the organization. As part of the verification process of a company, they can be requested by its shareholders or by government officials.
Board resolutions are typically drafted at board meetings. They require a majority vote of the board. They can be ad-hoc documents that the board can vote on and approve outside of the formal meeting. There are several different types of resolutions. These include motions to waive notice, minutes, and adjournment.
In a meeting the board will debate the proposed resolution to determine if any additional details or information is required. Then the member of the board will move to approve the resolution and another board member will vote to support the motion. The board will then vote on the motion based on the procedure described in the bylaws of the organization. The votes are recorded in the minutes of the board meetings by the corporate secretary. The final step is for the appropriate officers to sign the resolution.
While the process of writing and recording a board resolution is a daunting task for new board members, a complete understanding of how to draft a resolution makes the process much more simple. By following the same format, and providing clear and concise information the board can be in a position to quickly and efficiently pass resolutions that fulfill the requirements of the organization.
