What is a Company Secretary?
Who may be Appointed as a Company Secretary?
The Maltese Companies Act requires all companies to appoint as Company Secretary, a person who appears to have the requisite knowledge and experience to discharge the functions of a company secretary. Apart from the aforementioned, the Companies Act does not provide any specific criteria for eligibility.
On the other hand, it sets out certain disqualifications, providing that a company shall not appoint as Company Secretary, (i) a person interdicted, incapacitated or an undischarged bankrupt; (ii) a person convicted of an offense relating to money laundering, affecting public trust, theft, fraud or knowingly receiving property obtained by theft or fraud; (iii) a minor not emancipated to trade or (iv) a person who has been made subject to a disqualification order.
