Special Resolution

What is Special Resolution?

A shareholder decision that requires a higher approval threshold (usually 75%) for significant changes.

Think of it like this…

A super‑majority vote for big moves like changing the MOI or issuing new shares.

Why does it matter?

Protects shareholders on critical decisions
Required by the Companies Act and many MOIs
Provides confidence to investors and lenders

Best practice

State the exact wording, threshold, and meeting details in the minutes and resolutions.
