ngoCOMPLY
We are now able to offer our clients a comprehensive annual compliance service which packages all of the reporting and update services and adds some useful extras. To make budgeting easier (and assist with cashflow) this annual service is offered at a fixed rate, which can be settled upfront (with a substantial discount) or by monthly debit order.
The annual and ongoing compliance service:
- relieves the burden of administration;
- keeps the registrations of your organisation up to date;
- keeps track of board terms of office; and
- provides easy access to the latest versions of frequently required fundamental documents.
