01
Plan
The reporting cycle and paper deadlines are agreed with each company.
Group governance
EP Group Holdco Two in Blackburn: board reporting, company records and support to the operating companies in the group.
How it works
Four steps that repeat through the reporting cycle.
01
The reporting cycle and paper deadlines are agreed with each company.
02
Board papers are gathered, checked and circulated ahead of the meeting.
03
Decisions and actions are recorded and kept on file.
04
Statutory dates are diarised and confirmations held as evidence.
Decisions minuted properly
Three areas take up most of the diary: board reporting, company records, and support to the trading companies.
Board reporting covers assembling papers, circulating ahead of time, minuting decisions. Everything else is confirmed in writing first.
Company records covers keeping registers, diarising filing dates, confirming submissions. Everything else is confirmed in writing first.
Support to group companies includes agreeing reporting formats, keeping timetables aligned, answering queries. The listed scope excludes day-to-day management of a trading company.
We talk through what you need, what is realistic and what it costs, so you can decide with the full picture in front of you.
Decisions minuted properly
Recent jobs and the detail behind them. Reporting routines are easier to align at the start of a year.






Good work is mostly good preparation, done without an audience. Mention the company and the deadline, and the first reply is usually quicker.
Decisions minuted properly
The paper nobody circulated on time is the one relitigated at the next meeting. Filing confirmations are held on file, so queries can be answered with evidence.

No; audit and tax work stays with the qualified firms appointed for it.
