Overview

A self-maintaining register

In most systems, the shareholder register is a document you update manually. In dCompany, it is a live record that stays current as a natural by-product of running your corporate work through the platform.

Two ways to keep the register current

You can always register transactions manually — every transaction type is available directly in the Shareholder register. But for most changes that go through a formal process, the register updates itself automatically.

How automation keeps the register accurate

When you process a corporate change through the Document robot, dCompany does more than generate documents. Once the process is complete, the relevant transaction is written directly to the shareholder register — no separate data entry, no risk of the register falling behind the paperwork.

This applies across the most common corporate events:

  • Share capital increases — new shares are added to the register when the process is finalised
  • Splits and reverse splits — share counts and ownership percentages update automatically
  • Board elections and role changes — reflected immediately in the company record
  • Changes to articles of association — logged and traceable

Cross-company: all registers in sync

If you manage multiple companies, automations run at group level through portfolio projects keep every register in the group consistent. A change processed once flows through to the correct company registers — without opening each company individually.

The result

The register reflects what has actually happened, not what someone remembered to enter. Shareholders, advisers, and regulators always see the same accurate picture — and official reports like the shareholder register statement and beneficial owners report are always based on current data.
