Establishing a company in London for foreign investors can be a relatively swift process, often completed within a few days once all necessary information and documents are provided. The timeline primarily depends on the complexity of the company structure, the promptness of client communication, and the efficiency of Companies House. We streamline the process by assisting with name registration, drafting bespoke articles of association, appointing directors and company secretaries, and ensuring all initial statutory filings are correctly submitted. Our goal is to make your entry into the UK market as efficient and compliant as possible, laying a solid legal foundation for your London operations.

Determining the appropriate jurisdiction for disputes between UK and Bangladesh parties is a critical aspect of cross-border contract drafting. Generally, parties can agree to a specific jurisdiction, such as the English courts or an international arbitration centre like the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA) or the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC). English law is often chosen as the governing law due to its predictability and robustness. We advise clients on the implications of each choice, considering factors like enforceability of judgments, cost, time, and privacy. Our expertise ensures that your contracts contain clear and enforceable dispute resolution clauses that protect your interests effectively, regardless of where the dispute arises.

While both UK and Bangladesh company laws are rooted in common law principles, there are significant differences that impact cross-border operations. The UK's Companies Act 2006 is known for its comprehensive framework, emphasizing corporate governance, shareholder rights, and robust regulatory oversight by Companies House and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Bangladesh's Companies Act 1994, while similar in many aspects, has its own unique regulatory requirements, particularly concerning foreign investment, repatriation of profits, and specific RJSC filings. Meheruba's triple-qualified Barrister, Meheruba Mahbub, possesses a deep understanding of both systems, allowing us to provide tailored advice that navigates these differences and ensures compliance in both jurisdictions for clients with interests in London and Bangladesh.
