What It Is
The Corporate Secretary module is MPG's comprehensive board and entity governance solution. It manages the full corporate governance lifecycle: legal entities, boards and committees, directors, meetings, resolutions, filings, and statutory deadlines — all with full audit trails and regulatory compliance tracking.
The module provides a structured entity register tracking legal entities, ownership structures, registration details, and statutory deadlines. Boards and committees are managed with charters, member rosters, meeting frequencies, and quorum rules. Directors are tracked through their full lifecycle from appointment to renewal to resignation.
Meetings are managed end-to-end: agenda preparation, paper collection, distribution, attendance, conflict declarations, minutes, resolutions, and action tracking. Every step is documented and auditable for regulatory compliance and board reporting.

How MPG Solves Them
MPG provides a centralized entity register with full ownership structures, registration details, and statutory deadline tracking. Automated alerts ensure filing deadlines, AGM dates, and director renewals are never missed.
Board and committee management includes charters, member rosters, quorum rules, and meeting frequencies. Meetings are managed end-to-end from agenda through minutes, with conflict declarations, resolutions, and action tracking built in.
Directors are tracked through their full lifecycle — appointment, independence assessment, skills matrix, term management, renewal decisions, and resignation. This ensures the board always has the right composition and that renewals are proactively managed.
Key Features
Reporting Studio & Governance AI
Every record in this module can be reported on
The Reporting Studio turns what your workspace records into governed figures — compiled from your own records, approved before anything leaves the workspace, and answered with citations.
Governed measures
Each figure is compiled from the module's own records and carries the instant it was read at and what it leaves out.
Approval before release
A report pack leaves the workspace only once the approval chain its report type requires has decided on it.
Answers you can check
The assistant points to the records each answer rests on, and it never approves, publishes, releases or deletes anything.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I manage multi-entity group structures?
Yes. MPG's entity register supports parent-subsidiary relationships, ownership percentages, and group structure mapping. You can track entities across multiple jurisdictions with their respective registration details and statutory deadlines.
How are board meetings managed?
MPG manages meetings end-to-end: agenda preparation, paper collection, distribution, attendance tracking, conflict declarations, minutes drafting, resolution voting, and action tracking. Every step is documented with a full audit trail.
Can I track director terms and renewals?
Yes. MPG tracks each director's appointment date, term length, term end date, and renewal status. The system sends alerts before terms expire, ensuring renewals are proactively managed rather than allowed to lapse.
How are conflict of interest declarations handled?
MPG tracks conflict declarations at the meeting and agenda item level. When a conflict is declared, the system records the nature of the conflict, whether recusal was required, and whether the director left the meeting.
Can I track statutory filing deadlines?
Yes. Each entity has configurable statutory deadline tracking for annual returns, accounts filing, license renewals, and other regulatory deadlines, with automated alerts sent well in advance.
