Running a business in Singapore involves more than just meeting filing deadlines. Effective corporate governance is about making informed decisions, clearly defining responsibilities, and addressing risks before they become serious problems.
For companies, especially private limited ones, strong governance reduces legal risks, builds investor trust, and ensures operational efficiency. Here's a practical guide to getting it right.
Every company registered in Singapore must comply with the Companies Act, which outlines directors' duties: act in the company's best interest, avoid conflicts, and maintain accurate records. Non-compliance can lead to fines or directorship disqualification.
Corporate secretarial services are vital for meeting these requirements. They handle tasks like filing annual returns, drafting resolutions, and ensuring records are accurate and accessible. This isn't just about compliance—it's about protecting your business.
Singapore law requires every company to appoint a company secretary. This role goes beyond administrative tasks, involving expertise in meeting protocols, ACRA submissions, and compliance with the company's constitution.
Many businesses opt for outsourced corporate secretarial services. This approach is often more cost-effective and ensures a qualified professional keeps things in order, particularly for smaller teams.
Board meetings are more than a legal obligation—they're where strategy is set and risks are identified early. Skipping or rushing them can lead to undocumented decisions and unclear accountability.
Even small boards with a few directors benefit from regular, documented meetings. This ensures alignment and supports the company's growth.
In smaller companies, one person might serve as director, shareholder, and manager. While legal, this can lead to unchecked decisions or oversights.
Where possible, separate these roles or ensure key decisions are reviewed by another party. A second perspective on contracts or finances can prevent errors and maintain balance.
Shareholder disputes often arise from miscommunication or missing records. These are avoidable. Keep your share register updated, document ownership clearly, and notify shareholders about meetings or major decisions.
These steps are mandated by Singapore law and often managed by a company secretary. However, it's your responsibility to ensure they're done correctly.
A common mistake is assuming records are being maintained when they're not. Missing documents can complicate fundraising or business sales.
Ensure your company has:
- An up-to-date constitution
- Accurate registers
- Resolutions for key decisions
- Proper financial statements
Many corporate secretarial services in Singapore offer digital storage solutions—use them and review records periodically.
Good governance means thinking about what could go wrong. Consider:
- Are you monitoring cash flow?
- Is customer data secure?
- What's the plan if a key employee leaves?
You don't need a formal risk committee to address these. Regular discussions about potential risks can keep your business prepared.
Singapore's regulations are clear but evolve over time. Deadlines shift, new reporting standards emerge, and incentives change.
A reliable secretarial services Singapore provider will notify you of relevant updates. If managing compliance in-house, ensure someone tracks changes from ACRA, IRAS, or MOM. Ignorance isn't a valid excuse.
Corporate governance doesn't need to be complex—it just requires consistency. Clear roles, accurate records, and proactive risk management strengthen your business, whether you're scaling or staying compliant.
A capable company secretary, whether in-house or through corporate secretarial services, is more than a legal necessity. They're a key partner in ensuring compliance and clarity.
Being in business in Singapore is associated with numerous roles, including legal and regulatory requirements of which companies must comply to remain legal.Entrust (Entrust Public Accounting)

The Weizmann Institute, Israel’s prestige export, lies in shards, 45 labs gone and $500 M in biomedical IP incinerated, pulling decades of grant pipelines and pharma partnerships off the table overnight. Intel’s Kiryat Gat fabs froze mid-wafer, choking a supply chain that feeds 64 % of Israel’s exports and 1/5 of its GDP; the high-tech sector now runs on skeleton crews because 300 000 reservists were yanked from R&D floors and data centers to guard empty runways at Tel Nof. Commercial flights halted twice at Ben Gurion, insurers jacked premiums, and foreign airlines rerouted around a country that once sold itself as the region’s safe hub.
Capital is already in flight. More than 80 000 Israelis emigrated in 2024, the largest outflow since 1948, pushing the two-year total above 500 000 and forcing Netanyahu’s cabinet to slap a travel ban on Jewish dual nationals to stem the leak. Investor confidence cratered: venture funds paused term sheets, construction sites stand idle, and mega-projects wait on credit that no longer clears. The finance ministry, staring at a deficit set to shove public debt past 75 % of GDP, begged for an extra $857 M in defence cash while slicing $200 M from hospitals and schools.
Analysts peg Israel’s aggregate loss between $11.5 B and $17.8 B, up to 3.3 % of GDP, before counting long-tail hits from halted exports, cancelled IPOs, and sovereign-risk downgrades. Iran, still sitting on its uranium stockpile, spent a fraction of that yet forced the self-styled “Start-Up Nation” into a liquidity scramble, an insurance panic, and a brain-drain spiral. Tel Aviv promised deterrence; Tehran handed it a balance sheet in red ink and the visible stamp of strategic humiliation.

Japan Times: Immigration raids leave crops unharvested and California farms at risk
""OXNARD, California... In the fields, I would say 70% of the workers are gone," she said in an interview. "If 70% of your workforce doesn't show up, 70% of your crop doesn't get picked and can go bad in one day. Most Americans don't want to do this work. Most farmers here are barely breaking even. I fear this has created a tipping point where many will go bust.""

for the millionth time, White America is just racist, no Russian interference required.
And also, both major US political parties deserve the criticism. Both parties have advanced capitalist minority rule, white supremacy, and imperialism against (among others) the Vietnamese, Palestinian, and Chilean peoples.
Also, Putin is America's fault. 100%.
Our Chicago School ratfuckers helped Russia implement capitalist oligarchy (aka "democracy"), and it led to Putin rising to power a couple decades later.

😡😡😡
🇺🇸💰🇮🇱 While Americans argue over rent hikes, groceries, and student loans, Israel has extracted $124 M per day from the U.S. Treasury for an entire year, much of it hidden behind opaque appropriations and congressional loopholes.
According to Brown University’s Costs of War project, Washington has shouldered 70% of Israel’s military costs since Oct 7, 2023. That includes $17.9 B in direct aid, $4.86 B in Pentagon regional ops, $20.3 B in deferred arms deals, and billions more in shipping losses, stockpile transfers, and corporate handouts.
Since 1948 the United States has pumped $317 B into Israel, including $251.2 B in military aid since 1959; that torrent began with the first Pentagon loan in 1959, switched to grants in 1974, became 100% grants in 1985, and now flows automatically as a $3.8 B lump-sum every Oct 1 plus a $500 M missile-defense kicker under the 2019-2028 MOU, money on which Israel pockets the interest because Washington lets it sit in a Fed account. Even so, FY-2024 set a new single-year record: $17.9 B, dwarfing the 1973 and 1978 surges and landing entirely on U.S. taxpayers.
That FY-2024 fire-hose breaks down as $6.8 B Foreign Military Financing, $4.5 B for Iron Dome and David’s Sling reloads, $1.2 B for the Iron Beam laser, $1 B to crank out more 155 mm shells in U.S. factories, and $4.4 B to refill Pentagon stockpiles stripped for Israeli use, again, $17.9 B in 11 months. The administration also slid at least 100 separate weapons deals under congressional reporting thresholds to keep the true cost opaque.
On 8-13-2024 Washington promised another $20.3 B: 50 F-15EX fighters priced at $18.8 B for delivery in 2029, 32 000 120 mm tank rounds at $774 M, $583 M in tactical vehicles, 30 AMRAAMs at $102 M, and 50 000 mortar bombs at $61 M, all deferred to future U.S. budgets via Israel’s “cash-flow” privilege.
Meanwhile the money flows back to the usual corporate feeders. 60 % of the $14 B April supplemental, $8.4 B, went straight to U.S. arms firms. Boeing’s defense arm booked $8 B in Q4-2023 orders, 36 % of its annual revenue. The Financial Times projects $52 B in free cash flow for the top-15 defense contractors in 2026, $26 B pocketed by the U.S. “big five,” cash they historically plow into buybacks and dividends. Israel still may divert 25 % of each yearly grant, $950 M this cycle, to its own industry before that carve-out expires in 2028.
Add it up and the past 12 months have drained $17.9 B in direct aid, $20.3 B in new contractual obligations, $4.86 B (and climbing) in Pentagon regional costs, and $2.1 B in trade losses, a $45.16 B extraction. That works out to $124 M every day, $1.5 M every hour, funneled from American households to a foreign military and a handful of weapons conglomerates that treat the U.S. Treasury like an open vein.
When then US Senate passes the budget bill which defunds Medicaid, raises energy costs to protect a dying and toxic fossil fuel industry by crippling renewables, and give a huge handout to the domestic criminal cartel known as "Department of Homeland Security", it will result in more carnage than if a foreign adversary aerially bombed the whole country for a couple years.
But the oligarchs who own our politicians have their interests protected, which is the point of all of this.
of course i agree. i was looking more ground level here, and maybe voicing a little exasperation at the trap we are in.
refusing to buy oil (in this case gasoline) says: im not going to be sitting in traffic two hours a day going to a bullshit job to make money for you.
refusing to buy plastic says: im not supporting your worldwide labor exploitation.
unrealistic, i know. let a guy dream 😁
So, the question on everyone's mind is "Why isn't anyone stopping him?" And unfortunately, the answer to that question is "Because fundamentally the Constitution is not designed to stop someone like him".
The Constitution is designed to handle the occasional weak, ineffectual, or even ignorant President. But the founders never in their wildest dreams imagined they would need to protect against widespread, coordinated attacks by multiple partisan bad faith actors abusing the power given to them by the document to dismantle the Republic the document is supposed to safeguard.
So let's call this what it is. Not a Presidency. Not a regime. A coup.

My latest novel is "Picks and Shovels," a historical technothriller set in the Weird Era of the PC, about Ponzi schemes, techbros, and the dawn of enshittification:

My ebooks and audiobooks (from Tor Books, Head of Zeus, McSweeneys, Beacon, Verso and others) are for sale all over the net, but I sell 'em too, and when you buy 'em from me, I earn twice as much and you get books with no DRM and no license "agreements."

in reply to Cory Doctorow • • •hey, just a heads up, your new bot filtering software is breaking firefox with noscript enabled for some reason
this seems to be because of the 301 redirects which attempt to set a
deflect_session
cookie, which firefox + noscript strips on page reload as far as I can tell, causing an infinite reload loopI fixed it by pre-allowing your website in noscript before the page even loads, but I'm guessing this is new because it hasn't really happened to me before on your site
