我和朋友两人合办一件公司,他全职负责公司业务,而我就管理一下公司的文件和帐目。但近几个月来,公司业务不断下滑,而且朋友还私下吃公司的钱。现在,他提出愿意辞职退股,但我又担心他还瞒着我以公司的名义向其他公司借钱,毕竟他以前主管公司,求高人指点。
你要退出还是他要退出?假设说你和他都是. 你要退出,就叫你们的Corporate Secretary准备辞呈,Resolution of directors, 表明你要辞职,转让股份,和share transfer forms。拿Share transfer form, Form E4A & Working Sheet C for Transfer of Shares给IRAS做Stamping. IRAS会出Original Certificate of Stamp Duty. 然后你就可以去ACRA的bizfile update你辞职了,不再是Director & Shareholder of the company. 公司的营运也就和你没关系了。
如果是他退出,你之前也没参与公司的运作,又怕有手尾,不如就申请关闭公司吧。关闭之前要确定你们的公司没有欠债。要不然,ACRA不会同意关的。
哎呀,漏字了。假设说你和他都是directors & shareholders
我和他都是股东和董事,问题就是他要退出来,之前一直是他在管理,我要接手的话如何保障他没有用公司的名义在外借钱
他退出来,公司的业务也会被他带走的。没有业务的公司,就是一个空壳。不如就把公司关闭。
如果要关闭公司,那我如何知道他有没有以公司的名义欠钱
他能以公司的名义借钱?你的意思是欠货款还是LOAN?
就我所了解,新加坡小型公司因为是要借钱不容易。
向银行的商业贷款,银行多数都会要求抵押,也很注重公司的Share Capital 和Assets。换句话说,银行是锦上添花的多,雪中送炭的少。
小公司间能接到钱的应该是私交不错的,你不就不妨打电话也了解一下。小公司的欠账多数是货款,通常前款期为15到30天。因为他们的cash flow也比较紧,通常都会send Statement of Accounts告诉负责人你公司欠款多少和打电话来追钱的。银行也每个月寄Statement of Accounts。你可以多看公司的来往信件,多接公司电话,还是能看出些营运状况的.
看公司又没有欠税,可以去IRAS Website My Tax Portal https://mytax.iras.gov.sg/ESVWeb/default.aspx 去AccountSummary 或Corporate Tax Account Detail.
还要看你们公司每年有没按时Hold AGM做Annual Return.没有的话要补的。
你申请Striking-off时,ACRA会问你一个list:

这些是要如实申报的。
我个人有个建议,如果你的合作伙伴还想做这个业务,不如和他商量你退出吧,把股份全转给他,这样你就不用苦恼债务问题。
