Why Register an Unlimited Company?
An Unlimited Company is a type of corporate entity registered where the liability of its shareholders is not limited to the amount of capital they have invested. In the event of winding up, members are fully liable for the company's debts. This structure offers distinct advantages, particularly in terms of capital flexibility and certain regulatory exemptions.
Unlimited Liability: Shareholders are personally liable for all company debts and obligations, extending beyond their capital contribution.
Separate Legal Personality: Like limited companies, unlimited companies have their own legal identity, allowing them to enter contracts, own property, and sue or be sued in their own name.
Financial Confidentiality: Unlimited companies are not required to disclose as much financial information publicly compared to limited companies, offering greater privacy for shareholders.
No Fixed Minimum Share Capital: Unlimited companies are not required to maintain a fixed minimum share capital, offering more flexibility in managing their finances.
Confidentiality: Financial information, such as accounts and dividends, is not required to be filed publicly, allowing an unlimited company to operate without exposing its financial details.
This provides a competitive edge by keeping sensitive data private, while still being able to analyze competitors' publicly available financial information.
Suitable for Niche Ventures: Often used by law firms, high-capital ventures, or close-knit partnerships where all members have confidence in mutual financial responsibility.
Professional Credibility: Incorporation is essential for opening business bank accounts, applying for licenses, and building trust with customers, investors, government agencies, regulators, financial institutions, and the public.
Exclusive Name Rights: Your company name is protected under CAC, preventing others from using it within Nigeria.
Perpetual Existence: The company remains legally active regardless of changes in ownership or management.
Creditor Confidence: With unlimited liability, shareholders and members are personally responsible for the company's debts. This boosts creditor confidence as they know that shareholders’ assets are at risk, reducing the likelihood of insolvency.
Potential Tax Benefits: Small companies (turnover under ₦25 million) are exempt from Company Income Tax (CIT) under Nigerian law.
Regulatory Compliance: Unlike other companies, private unlimited companies are not required to file Annual Returns with the CAC.
