Nominee Director Service

What is the role and scope of nominee resident director?
The Companies Act requires that every company registered in the city-state appoint at least one director who is ordinarily a resident in Singapore.
We can help you fulfil this requirement by appointing one of our team members to act as the nominee resident director for your company, on a short-term or annual basis.
In Singapore, a Nominee Director has the same obligations and responsibilities as those imposed on a regular director by the Companies Act and the common law.
Most of the company’s powers are vested in the board of directors, who control the company’s affairs and are answerable to the shareholders.
Directors are responsible for the statutory books and filings, accounting records and annual accounts, shareholders and directors meetings and importantly, all directors have a fiduciary duty towards the company.
