Document background
The Memorandum of Meeting is a fundamental document in Danish corporate governance, used to officially document proceedings of various types of corporate meetings, from board meetings to shareholder assemblies. This document type is essential for compliance with the Danish Companies Act (Selskabsloven) and serves multiple purposes: it creates a legal record of decisions, provides evidence of corporate governance procedures, establishes accountability for assigned actions, and maintains organizational memory. The memorandum must capture accurate meeting details, attendee information, discussions, formal decisions, and action items. It becomes particularly important in situations requiring proof of corporate decision-making, during audits, or in legal proceedings where meeting outcomes need to be verified.
