Business / How To Run An NGO by CaseySmartz(m): 2:09am On Mar 18
Are you passionate about making a difference in your community? Do you run a non-profit organization (NGO) dedicated to positive social change? It's time to take your NGO to the next level by registering with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC).

Registration with the CAC provides your NGO with legal recognition, enhancing its credibility in the eyes of donors, partners, and the community. It demonstrates your commitment to transparency and accountability.

Also, registered NGOs have access to a wider range of funding opportunities from governmental, corporate, and international sources.

Many donors require NGOs to be registered with the CAC before considering them for grants or support.
Finally, registered NGOs are eligible for tax exemptions and incentives, allowing you to maximize resources for your projects and initiatives.

This can significantly reduce operational costs and increase the impact of your organization's work.
Don't miss out on the opportunity to unlock the full potential of your NGO.

Register with the Corporate Affairs Commission today and pave the way for greater impact, credibility, and sustainability in your mission to create positive change.

Your community and beneficiaries are counting on you!

Happy weekend everyone, thank God it's Friday.

We have yet again come to the end of another wonderful week and I'm very grateful to God and to all my wonderful clients for making this week beautiful.

If your business is registered, then just relax and enjoy the benefits and peace of having a registered business.

But if you still haven't registered your business, then as you relax and recharge this weekend,

Be reminded that if someone else registers your business name before you, you will not be allowed to register that name again.

Think about all the resources you've put into pushing your brand name to the public eyes.

Think about how all your customers now know you by that name.

Think about how much you've put into branding.

All of that could get wasted if someone else registers that name before you.

As you enjoy this weekend, please consider getting your business registered.

Call, text, or WhatsApp us at 08024211041 to get started.

Dear CEO,
There are a myriad of advantages awaiting you when you choose to register your company with the Corporate Affairs Commission.

Beyond mere legal compliance, this pivotal step can revolutionize the way you conduct business.

1. By registering your company, you secure the invaluable shield of limited liability.

This crucial protection ensures that your personal assets remain separate from those of your business, shielding you from personal financial liability in case of legal issues or debts incurred by the company.

2. Registration opens the doors to a plethora of government grants and loans designed to bolster businesses like yours.

Whether you're seeking financial support for expansion, innovation, or sustainability initiatives, being registered enhances your eligibility for these invaluable resources.

3. Securing your company's name through registration safeguards it from unauthorized use or infringement by others in the market.

This not only fosters brand integrity but also prevents confusion among consumers, ensuring your unique identity remains untarnished in the marketplace.

Don't let uncertainty hold you back. Take charge of your company's future today by initiating the registration process.

Reach out to me now to embark on this transformative journey.

Call, text, or WhatsApp us at 08024211041 to get started.

Dear Business owner, here are 3 important reasons why you need to register your business

1. One of the most important reasons why you need to register your business is to gain access to corporate accounts. This is essential for managing your business finances effectively.

Without registration, navigating financial transactions and accessing vital banking services can prove cumbersome, hindering the smooth operation and growth of your enterprise.

2. Registration lays a solid foundation for the continuity and longevity of your business. It instills confidence in stakeholders, including investors, clients, and suppliers, by showcasing your commitment to professionalism, stability, and legal compliance.

3. Finally, registering your business elevates your company's stature in the eyes of foreign clients and investors by showcasing your registered status.

Registration signals credibility, trustworthiness, and adherence to international standards, facilitating smoother collaborations, partnerships, and expansion opportunities across borders.

Business / Re: The Primary Aim Of Cac Registration by CaseySmartz(m): 11:49am On Feb 17
CaseySmartz:
Dear Business Owners, the month is still very new and it's a happy weekend.

Did you know that the primary aim of CAC registration is to prevent confusion between brands sharing similar names?

Well now you do.

And to achieve this, the Corporate Affairs Commission has implemented policies that prohibit the registration of names resembling existing ones.

It's important to note that registering your exact business name isn't a prerequisite for preventing its registration by someone else.

If another individual registers a name very similar to yours, it will hinder your ability to register the same name.

That's why I emphasize the importance of this message daily: Register your business name, company, NGO, or church name promptly to safeguard it from potential interference by others.


As you unwind and recharge this weekend, don't forget the crucial aspect of your business:
Which is its registration. Ensuring your business is properly registered is as vital as any other operational task.

Here's a gentle nudge to consider these essential steps even amidst your weekend relaxation.

Remember, attending to your business's legal aspects can contribute to its long-term success and stability.

So, while you savor your weekend, spare a moment to strengthen the foundations of your enterprise. Wishing you a restful yet productive weekend!

Business / Re: What Is SCUML? Why Is It Important? And How To Get It by CaseySmartz(m): 3:26pm On Feb 01
CaseySmartz:

WHAT IS SCUML

1.
The Special Control Unit against Money Laundering (SCUML) was established in 2005 as a specialized Unit to monitor, supervise and regulate the activities of Designated Non-Financial Institutions in Nigeria.
2.
What are DNFIs?
DNFIs (Designated Non-Financial Institutions) in Nigeria. These include dealers in jewellery, cars and luxury goods, hotels, chartered/ professional accountants, audit firms, tax consultants, legal practitioners, supermarkets, casinos (betting pools) and hotels. Others include estate surveyors and valuers, precious stones and metals dealers and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) or such businesses as the Federal Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investment or appropriate regulatory authorities may from time to time designate.
3.
What are the operations of SCUML?
These operations include:
✔️Registration of DNFIs
✔️On-site and off-site inspection of all DNFIs
✔️Collection, evaluation, and escalation of CTRs and STRs
✔️Filing CTRs and STRs resulting from their operations.
✔️Establishment of a database on DNFIs and their financial transactions for use in combating money laundering and terrorism financing.
WHY SHOULD YOU REGISTER FOR SCUML??
Here's why;
I'll explain to you using a story...

You own or manage a 4 Star Hotel...

One of the best in town.

It has a spa, gym, tennis court, basket ball court, indoor pool, outdoor pool, hot tubs, conference room, fine dining, limousine services...

The rooms are very spacious with large beds and premium bedding, large flat screens TVs, bathrobes, and slippers.

The cheapest room there costs about 50k per night.

One day, you're minding your business and supervising a new staff at reception desk when the phone rings.

The person calling says he wants to host a business conference during a particular time at your hotel and asks if he can book online... You confirm that he can.

So he pays online for a number of his business partners. He books all the rooms and also pays extra for the conference room.

You are ecstatic!

It's a lot of money for the hotel and a lot of commission for you.

A week later, the man calls back.

Something has happened and the conference will no longer be taking place.

To your dismay, he wants a refund.

Your policy states that a 70% refund will be made for cancellations received 21 days before date of arrival... so you are then compelled to refund him back his money after deducting your 30%.

He gives you the details of a third party who the payment should be made to.

You make the payment.

What you are unaware of, is that your hotel has just been used to launder illegal money.

Money Laundering is a crime that carries up to 14 years jail sentence, if convicted.

Ignorance of the law is not an excuse.

There's also another way...

Because running a hotel is a cash intensive operation, hotels risk criminals paying for their bills with ill-gotten cash... no questions asked.

This is why if you run a hotel business, you are required by law to register with SCUML (Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering), and comply with reporting requirements.

Today is another opportunity to remind you that:

If you own or run any business that falls under any of the categories listed below:

- Automotive Dealers

- Businesses in the Hospitality Industry

- Casinos and Pools Betting

- Clearing and Settlement Companies

- Construction Companies

- Consultants and Consulting Companies

- Dealers in Jewelries

- Dealers in Mechanized Farming Equipment, Farming Equipment and Machineries

- Dealers in Precious Metals and Precious Stones

- Dealers in Real Estate, Estate Developers, Estate Agents and Brokers

- High Value Dealers

- Hotels

- Legal Practitioners and Notaries

- Licensed Professional Accountants and Tax Consultants

- Mortgage Brokers

- Practitioners of Mechanized Farming

- Supermarkets

- Trust and Company Service Providers

You are MANDATED by law to register with The Special Control Unit Against Money Laundering(SCUML), and comply with reporting requirements.

Failure to do so can earn you up to 14 years in jail.

Ignorance is not an excuse.

Note:
These are the meanings of those acronyms.

STR= Suspicious Transaction Reports

CTR= Currency Transaction Reports

Hey you, I just got a CTR about you and I think it is a STR.

Hehehe! No be smol tin!😂
4.
What are the necessary documents needed for SCUML registration?

✔️Certificate of Incorporation
✔️Article and Memorandum of Association
✔️Tax Clearance Certificate (Not applicable to NGOs)
✔️Audited Financial Report
✔️Authorised Operational Licence (Not applicable to NGOs)
✔️Company/Organization Profile
✔️Constitution (for NGOs only)
✔️Agreement signed between the NGO and the National Planning Commission (for international NGOs only).

Please send your enquiries to helpdesk@scuml.org and/or infoscuml@efcc.gov.ng.

Other enquiries/complaints not relating to SCUML and it's activities should be sent to info@efcc.gov.ng.

Happy new month business owners!

As we step into this brand new month, I'm certain you're geared up to propel your business forward. I want to emphasize that registering your business is not just a choice but an absolute necessity.
You might wonder why, and I'll explain:

1. Failing to do so could result in the unpleasant surprise of waking up one day to find that your business name legally belongs to someone else.

2. Skipping the registration process might lead to the realization that your products bear a name already legally claimed by another entity. This could render all your branding efforts futile.

3. If you wish to avoid the scenario where all the time, effort, and resources invested in promoting a name go down the drain, taking immediate steps to register your business is crucial.

Don't waste any more time, as delaying this could result in encountering the aforementioned issues and more.

I'm just a DM away.
Reach out via WhatsApp at +2348024211041.
Happy new month once again.

Obierika:



The economy is very harsh at the moment and most businesses are struggling so how do they expect them to come file returns?

A man whose roof is on fire does not waste time chasing rats in the house

It's understandable that economic challenges make annual returns filing difficult. Prioritizing urgent matters, like a struggling business, is crucial.

But if you understand the consequences of being "struck-off", you'd understand that filing annual returns is an important step in saving a struggling business.

A client reached out to me to file his company's annual returns.

Only for us at Smartbiz Enterprise to discover the shocking news of our lives.

August last year, the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) on several occasions published their intention to delete Businesses, Companies, and NGOs from the portal first by striking them off for refusal to file their annual returns up to date.

The deadline was December 31, 2023.

Later we got another publication that the deadline has been shifted to April 2024.

So, everybody went to relax.

Both agents and customers got a deep breath because the deadline was shifted to April this year.

Omoh!

Today only to discover that CAC didn't keep to their word ooo.

This client reached out to me only for us to see "STRUCK-OFF"

So, here are 10 implications when the status of a registered entity whether it's; Business name, Company, or NGO on the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) Registration portal is showing STRUCK-OFF."

1. The company has ceased to exist.

2. All the bank account associated with this business, company, or NGO is automatically frozen.

3. All operating licenses are automatically invalid.

4. All the directors and shareholders of that company is considered wanted by the law.

5. To revive that company again, and remove that STRUCK-OFF bandage. First, the company will have to go to court and present themselves.

6. After that, the company will be fined a huge sum of money to pay.

7. All the company directors will be fined a huge sum of money to pay.

8. All the company shareholders will be fine a huge sum of money too.

9. It means, on your path as a customer run away from such company. Don't give them your money. They are fraudulent. Avoid them.

10. If they refuse to pay, both the directors and shareholders of the company may see themselves behind bars after the commission sues them.

So, you see. These days, before you give your money to any registered company. Abeg, try to check their current status on the CAC portal.

As a matter of fact, every Nigerian should make the CAC search portal (search.cac.gov.ng) their most visited site this year to avoid *"I didn't know"*

The commission is out ooo against those entity who refused to file their returns for years.

Abeg, if you register your Business name, Company, or NGO. By all means, go and file your annual returns.

This thing is not hard.

Reach out to agents, consultants, and service providers who are into the business of CAC Registrations and file your returns through them.

Business / Re: 3 Things You Must Not Do In 2024 As A Business Owner by CaseySmartz(m): 11:26am On Jan 21

Well Said!

Thanks! Glad you got something out of it
Business / 3 Things You Must Not Do In 2024 As A Business Owner by CaseySmartz(m): 1:56am On Jan 21
3 THINGS YOU MUST NOT DO IN 2024 AS A BUSINESS OWNER

1.This year 2024 don’t make the mistake of engaging in exclusive marketing for a business name you've not legally registered. Instead of printing flyers, printing banners or making billboards, or even paying for online adverts.
Instead, use a small amount of money to secure your business name first.

2. When you set the goals you want to achieve for your business in 2024, and the time comes to accomplish it, try as much as possible to Not procrastinate.
Procrastination is a dream killer and the more you procrastinate, the harder it becomes to accomplish anything.

3.Develop Strong Customer Relationships: In the competitive landscape of 2024, it's crucial to establish and maintain positive connections with your customers. This is especially important during challenging moments when fatigue and irritation may set in. When faced with a client expressing concerns or frustrations, it's essential to take a moment to compose yourself.
Instead of reacting impulsively, carefully consider your response.

Take the time to articulate your thoughts in writing, ensuring that your message is clear without causing offense. Review and refine your response, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a professional and respectful tone. This mindful approach can significantly impact how your customers perceive your business.

Remember, your business is in it for the long run. How you handle challenging situations today can influence whether a client will return in the future.

In the competitive climate of 2024, it's a "go hard or go home" scenario. Elevate your business by consistently delivering exceptional service and managing client interactions with a focus on building lasting relationships.

Your approach to customer relations is a key factor in ensuring that your business doesn't remain stagnant but continues to grow and thrive.

Don't forget to contact me for all your CAC related Issues.

Business / The Primary Aim Of Cac Registration by CaseySmartz(m): 2:07am On Jan 13
Dear Business Owners, the month is still very new and it's a happy weekend.

Did you know that the primary aim of CAC registration is to prevent confusion between brands sharing similar names?

Well now you do.

And to achieve this, the Corporate Affairs Commission has implemented policies that prohibit the registration of names resembling existing ones.

It's important to note that registering your exact business name isn't a prerequisite for preventing its registration by someone else.

If another individual registers a name very similar to yours, it will hinder your ability to register the same name.

That's why I emphasize the importance of this message daily: Register your business name, company, NGO, or church name promptly to safeguard it from potential interference by others.


As you unwind and recharge this weekend, don't forget the crucial aspect of your business:
Which is its registration. Ensuring your business is properly registered is as vital as any other operational task.

Here's a gentle nudge to consider these essential steps even amidst your weekend relaxation.

Remember, attending to your business's legal aspects can contribute to its long-term success and stability.

So, while you savor your weekend, spare a moment to strengthen the foundations of your enterprise. Wishing you a restful yet productive weekend!

Here's how to take charge of your business in 2024,
Register your business today. With your CAC documents, you can secure a corporate account, simplifying the management of your finances and safeguarding the future of your business.

Business / Benefits Of Filing Cac Annual Returns by CaseySmartz(m): 1:31am On Dec 23, 2023

This involves formally presenting crucial financial and operational information to the relevant regulatory bodies. This article aims to explore the significance and advantages of adhering to annual return filings in Nigeria, delving into the governing laws surrounding this pivotal process.

Importance of Annual Return Filings:

Statutory Compliance: The filing of annual returns is a mandatory obligation under the Nigerian Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA), signifying a company's dedication to legal compliance and corporate governance.

Transparency and Accountability:[/b]Annual returns offer a transparent overview of a company's financial performance, ownership structure, and general activities. This transparency fosters trust among stakeholders, including shareholders, investors, employees, and the public.

[b]Building Investor Confidence:
Consistent filing of annual returns contributes to building investor confidence by showcasing stability, effective management, and a commitment to fulfilling legal obligations. This, in turn, attracts potential investors and improves access to capital.

Access to Financing and Credit Facilities: Financial institutions often require up-to-date annual returns when companies seek loans or credit facilities. Regular filing streamlines the approval process, demonstrating the company's creditworthiness and facilitating better access to financing.

Legal Protection: Filing annual returns provides legal protection to the company's directors and officers. Timely and accurate submissions fulfill fiduciary duties, reducing the risk of personal liability for the company's actions.

Avoidance of Penalties and Sanctions:[/b]Failure to file annual returns within the stipulated timeframe attracts penalties and potential sanctions in Nigeria. Regular filing ensures compliance and minimizes the risk of financial or legal consequences.

Access to Government Tenders: Many government tenders and contracts require evidence of compliance with statutory obligations, including annual returns. Timely filings enable businesses to participate in government procurement processes and expand market opportunities.

Laws Governing Annual Return Filings in Nigeria:

Companies and Allied Matters Act (CAMA) 2020
Section 370 of CAMA mandates companies to file annual returns within 42 days after their Annual General Meeting (AGM) with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC).

Companies Regulations 2021:[/b]The Companies Regulations outline specific guidelines and requirements for filing annual returns, including necessary forms, fees, and supporting documents.

[b]Finance Act 2020:
The Finance Act introduced amendments to CAMA, including provisions for electronic filing of annual returns, enabling companies to submit returns electronically via the CAC’s online portal.

Penalties for Non-Compliance: Non-compliance with annual return filing requirements results in penalties and potential sanctions, such as late filing fees, suspension of directors, and removal from the register of incorporated entities.

Conclusion:

Filing annual returns in Nigeria is not merely a legal obligation but a critical practice benefiting companies in various ways. It ensures legal compliance, enhances transparency and accountability, boosts investor confidence, facilitates access to financing, protects directors and officers, and improves corporate image and reputation. Consistent filings demonstrate commitment to good corporate governance, positioning companies for growth and success in the Nigerian business landscape.
