Must every Swiss corporation prepare minutes of the General Meeting?

Antwort
Yes. Swiss company law requires every corporation, regardless of its size or the number of shareholders, to hold an ordinary General Meeting once a year and to record minutes of every General Meeting (Art. 702 CO). The minutes serve as the official record of the resolutions adopted and are an important document for the company’s corporate governance.
