How do I correctly calculate the notice period for convening a general meeting?
Antwort
The notice period is at least 20 days before the date of the general meeting (Art. 700 CO). Neither the day of the meeting nor the day of receipt of the invitation is counted. It is a full intermediate period. What matters is that the invitation reaches the shareholder no later than 20 days before the GM – not when it is sent.

Does every shareholder or member qualify as a beneficial owner?

Does the Communication Generator identify the beneficial owners?
No. The generator supports communication and information gathering. The actual assessment of who qualifies as a beneficial owner and who must be reported to the transparency register takes place afterwards. Konsento’s Transparency Register Reporting Assistant can be used for this assessment.
