What is Trademark?

A trademark is a sign for customers to distinguish your business’ goods and services from those of your competitors, it is often referred as a brand or brand name, and it can be in the form of a logo, graphic, signature or symbol etc. Registering a trademark allows you to protect your brand by restricting other traders to use the same or similar name or logo as your brand, which highly hinders the effort of counterfeiters.

 

A registered trademark can add value to your business because it protects your market share, you can authorize your brand to third parties such as a franchisee, or you can sell it outright for a specified value. It makes it easier for customers to look for your business, and with a good reputation, customers are less likely to look for an alternatives for the goods or services you are providing. The more your business’ reputation grows, the more valuable your brand will be.

Before you decide to register a trademark, you can always visit this database: http://ipsearch.ipd.gov.hk/tmlr/jsp/main.jsp ran by Hong Kong Intellectual Property Department to do some research on the trademark records and classifications.

 

Trademarks play an important role in protecting both sellers and customers and it helps promoting global economic growth. Choose a name or logo that can distinctly identify your business will make it easier to promote and protect your brand.

How important is a company secretary? Why does a Hong Kong limited company needs one?

Firstly, in Hong Kong, according to the Companies Ordinance, appointing a company secretary is mandatory, every company should have one. The secretary, if an individual must ordinarily reside in Hong Kong; or if a body corporate, must have its registered office or a place of business in Hong Kong. The sole director of a private company cannot be the company secretary.

Secondly, a company secretary plays a complex, multi-faceted and very important role within a company or organization. A company secretary is responsible for maintaining the statutory book, including register of shareholders and directors; organizing, preparing agendas for and taking minutes of board meetings and annual general meetings; alternation of directors or company secretaries; transfer of share; monitoring changes in relevant legislation and the regulatory environment and taking appropriate action; and liaising with lawyers and auditors. Company secretaries are the company’s named representative on legal documents, and it is their responsibility to ensure that the company and its directors operate within the law. It is also their responsibility to maintain company records, such as lists of directors and shareholders, and annual accounts.

In order to handle all the tasks mentioned above, a company secretary should be well knowledged and experienced. Some directors would appoint a friend or family as company secretary because they had to have one, and they were not able to complete the tasks probably as the role of the company secretary is largely a legal one.

The roles and responsibilities of company secretaries in Hong Kong have increased substantially and become more complex as demands for better corporate governance have grown. If you have a good company secretary, directors are free to concentrate on the smooth running of the company, and your company will probably achieve a higher valuation.
