The<\/span>\u00a0Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) has said that through the implementation of its Business Incentive Strategy, it had been able to register 39,074 business names between October and November 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

Its acting Registrar-General, Azuka Azinge, said this Tuesday in Lagos during stakeholders\u2019 forum.<\/span><\/p>\n

The forum is a periodic interactive session between the management of the commission and its stakeholders to enhance service delivery.<\/span><\/p>\n

The commission had, under its Business Incentive Strategy (BIS), reduced the cost of Business Name registration from N10,000 to N5,000 for a period of three months spanning October to December 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

The BIS is aimed at creating a window for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) to formalise their businesses so that they can own corporate account with banks, have access to loans, grants and other government interventions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Azuka said: \u201cOnly recently, the commission extended the BIS to encourage small businesses formalise their business by registering same with the commission.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the initial three months of the BIS registration, activities increased tremendously. For the months of October and November 2018, a total of 39,074 business names were registered.<\/span><\/p>

\u201cThe commission remains resolute in reviewing its processes regularly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On the amendment of the Companies and Allied Matters Act, the CAC boss said that the commission was positive that the amendment bill would be passed this month.<\/span><\/p>\n

She added: \u201cWork is at advanced stage to amend the CAMA in collaboration with the National Assembly. The amendment is aimed at enhancing the commission\u2019s supervisory and regulatory powers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe ultimate goal of the commission is to make CAC a world class companies\u2019 registry providing excellent registration and regulatory services.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

She explained that the commission was working with Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council to improve the business environment and make Nigeria a progressively easier place for business to start and thrive.<\/span><\/p>\n

The CAC boss noted that the deployment of the user-friendly Company Registration Portal has enabled customers to have on-line access to the services of the commission from the comfort of their offices and homes using different electronic payment platforms.The SUN<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
