CAMA 2020 compliance
CAMA 2020, without the guesswork.
The Companies and Allied Matters Act 2020 sits in the research corpus, so questions about incorporation, directors, shares, registers, and filings are answered with the section in front of you. Company secretarial work with the statute, the drafting, the deadlines, and the audit trail in one place.
Company secretarial
The work CAMA created.
The 2020 Act changed a great deal for Nigerian companies and their advisers: single-member companies, the treatment of company secretaries for small companies, share capital rules, beneficial ownership disclosure, and new filing obligations. Most of the compliance burden is recurring, which makes it exactly the kind of work a system should be tracking rather than a person.
The Act, searchable
Ask a question in plain language and get the answer with the section cited, rather than scrolling a PDF of the statute.
Entity records
Each company as a client record with custom fields for directors, shareholders, share capital, and registered particulars.
Filing deadlines
Annual returns and recurring obligations calendared per entity, with reminders that escalate rather than expire.
Documents and drafting
Resolutions, registers, and constitutional documents drafted in Word from your own precedents. See drafting.
In depth
A portfolio of companies is a scheduling problem.
Recurring work
Forty clients, forty return dates.
A secretarial practice fails not on the difficult questions but on the ordinary ones that arrive on a schedule. Deadlines are tracked per entity with configurable reminders, and an obligation that nobody has actioned escalates to a supervising fee earner instead of quietly passing.
Review
Check a whole portfolio against one question.
Tabular review runs one question across every constitutional document you hold: which companies still name a company secretary, which articles predate the 2020 Act, where the share capital clause needs amendment. Documents down the rows, questions across the columns, each answer citing the clause it came from.
FAQ
Questions, addressed.
What is CAMA 2020?
CAMA 2020 is the Companies and Allied Matters Act 2020, the principal statute governing companies, business names, and incorporated trustees in Nigeria. It replaced the 1990 Act and introduced changes including single-member companies, revised rules on company secretaries for small companies, changes to share capital requirements, and beneficial ownership disclosure.
How does software help with CAMA 2020 compliance?
The recurring obligations: annual returns, register maintenance, filings after changes in particulars: are scheduling and record-keeping problems. Software tracks each entity’s obligations against a calendar, keeps the register data in one place, drafts the resolutions, and leaves an audit trail of what was filed and when.
Is the Act itself searchable in ModulawAI?
Yes. CAMA 2020 is part of the Nigerian research corpus, so a question about a particular provision returns an answer with the section cited and linked.
Does this replace filing with the Corporate Affairs Commission?
No. Filings are made with the CAC through its own channels. ModulawAI manages the underlying work: the records, the deadlines, the drafting, and the evidence of what was done.
