Company Information Search in Malaysia
A business has its credit history and legal record, just like any other private individual. A request for corporate and financial information about a company is known as a “company information search” and is made to Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia (SSM or the Companies Commission of Malaysia).
Why Do We Search For Malaysian Companies?
It is a good idea to conduct a background check on a business or company to assist you to keep clear of poor service, doubtful people, conflicts of interest, bad value for money, and shady transactions. This is because understanding your customer’s trust before concluding any commercial dealings will help you to grasp their company background or customer’s financial record.
Many hiring managers may conduct background checks and call the candidate’s references to make sure the applicant is qualified for the position and to avoid claims of careless hiring. Before committing to a future with the company, job candidates can learn more about the history of the company.
What services does Company Search offer?
All Malaysian businesses, whether Sdn. Bhd. or Private Limited, must file their Annual Return and audited financial statements to SSM every year. Anyone can search for any of the over 1,000,000 (Sdn Bhd) or over 4,200,000 (sole proprietorship/partnership) business Companies registered with SSM (Please note that all information requested is private & confidential).
Because of this, the Company Search (SSM Printout) will include the following details:
- Full business name
- Previous business name (if any)
- Date of name change (if any)
- Company number
- when it was incorporated
- Registration office location
- The company’s address for business
- Type of enterprise
- Information on authorised and issued capital for shares.
- Name, address, I/C number, and date of appointment are all listed for the company directors.
- Details of the Company Secretary including name, address, I/C no and date of appointment.
- Details about the company’s shareholders
- Record of the Company’s Charges and Debentures
- A summary of the company’s financial data
