We’re making ASIC Annual Company Statements easier!

What's Changing?

To streamline the process of receiving your ASIC annual company statements, we're implementing changes that will make it quicker and more straightforward for all Directors to review the company statement and sign the annual solvency resolution.

Directors will now receive an email from Blackburn Lazer (no-reply@cas360.com.au) which will direct to review the Annual Company Statement and sign the annual solvency resolution (when appropriate) via the ‘Review Documents’ link in the email.

Once signed, a completed copy will be emailed to all parties for future reference.

In addition, the email also offers payment of the ASIC annual fee by AustBill Pay, an online credit card payment platform through Australia Post. AustBill Pay can be accessed by clicking on the pay now link in the email. Alternatively, payment of the annual fee can be made by BPAY, on-line or cheque as detailed on the invoice attached to the company statement.

How Will This Benefit You?

Streamlined Solvency Resolution Signing:

The new process streamlines the signing of the annual solvency resolution, which is sent to all directors for review and approval. With this enhancement, you can efficiently and securely sign the resolution within the DocuSign platform, reducing paperwork and simplifying the overall process.

Important Reminders:

While we're excited about these positive changes, we want to remind you of the crucial steps you need to take:

1. Review Your ASIC Company Statement:

Even with the new email delivery system, it remains essential for you to thoroughly review the ASIC annual company statements. This will ensure that you are up-to-date with all the pertinent information related to your company.

If, you notice any necessary changes, please contact our office so we can update your records with ASIC.

2. Pay the Annual Fee:

Don't forget to fulfill your annual fee obligations promptly. Your timely payment is crucial for maintaining compliance and avoiding any unnecessary late payment penalties.

3. Attend to the Solvency Resolution:

As part of your company's responsibilities, please ensure that the required solvency resolution is attended to in a timely manner. This is a critical aspect of corporate governance and compliance.

What You Need to Do:

To ensure a seamless transition, please add our email no-reply@cas360.com.au to your safe senders list. This will help prevent important communications from being directed to your spam folder.

We are confident that these changes will streamline the ASIC Annual Company Statement process. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us on 03 9720 6455.
