Antwort

In accordance with Article 701 (3) OR, a resolution of the general meeting can be passed in writing, i.e. on paper or in electronic form, provided that no shareholder requires oral consultation. The approval of all shareholders is a prerequisite. The law does not require a statutory basis, but the result must be recorded in a protocol or record of custody to document the resolution. In addition, a legally valid implementation requires the handwritten or qualified electronic signature of each shareholder on the written or electronic resolution.
