You have some new shareholders who would like to contribute money to the fund of your company? Do you want to receive the bank funding? Or maybe you need an operating license? Please contact us if you have any questions regarding the increase of the registered capital!<\/h3>\n<blockquote>\n<p>The amount of the registered capital represents the funds of the shareholders at stake.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Shareholders can pay out the profit as dividends; however, the registered capital \u2013 only by reducing its amount. If the company has long-term liabilities, the registered capital can only be reduced with the consent of all the creditors. If the company has uncovered losses, the registered capital shall not be reduced at all.<\/p>\n<p>The law also stipulates that the company\u2019s equity may not be less than half of the registered capital, which may occur in the case when the company has losses. In such a way, the law aims at protecting the rights of creditors.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Therefore, the higher the amount of registered capital, the more creditors of the company are protected, and the shareholders bear more risks.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nThe registered capital is increased in the following cases:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In order to ensure compliance with the company\u2019s financial obligations.<\/li>\n<li>In order to attract additional funds for business development.<\/li>\n<li>In order to improve the company\u2019s financial performance.<\/li>\n<li>When increasing the registered capital, the ratio between the equity and debts improves, as well as the implementation of the short-term liabilities.<\/li>\n<li>The increase of the registered capital is often made in order to receive bank financing.<\/li>\n<li>The increase of the registered capital may be made in order to obtain a license for a certain activity, when the licensing conditions establish minimum requirements for the authorized capital.<\/li>\n<li>If the shareholders lend to the company when financing the business and the company fails to repay the debt, then the company can increase the registered capital, and the shareholders may waive the debt instead of the contributions. The same procedure can be applied to other creditors of the company, who may thus become the shareholders of the company.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id='noriu'  class='avia-section av-av_section-95c34fc7e3835169f0dab574b49dce0e main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_layout_row  avia-builder-el-last  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-962'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_full-09ef171b310d48f2e34e2d3e86348b6d\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_full-09ef171b310d48f2e34e2d3e86348b6d{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_full-09ef171b310d48f2e34e2d3e86348b6d av_one_full  avia-builder-el-6  el_before_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div av-animated-generic left-to-right av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3{\npadding-bottom:20px;\nfont-size:40px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:40px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-av_heading-0c201c89cbc8d5b49893ad3e173514e3 av-special-heading-h1 blockquote modern-quote modern-centered  avia-builder-el-7  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  av-inherit-size'><h1 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >ORDER SERVICE<\/h1><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_one_full-c282e7c53ab6f75313f36604466194aa\">\n.flex_column.av-av_one_full-c282e7c53ab6f75313f36604466194aa{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-av_one_full-c282e7c53ab6f75313f36604466194aa av_one_full  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_one_full  avia-builder-el-last  first flex_column_div av-animated-generic bottom-to-top av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-962","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
