Board resolutions are governance evidence. Inconsistent formats create legal friction during fundraising, diligence, and audits.
When startups need board resolutions
- Share issuances and option grants
- Major contracts and debt arrangements
- Banking and delegated authority approvals
- Director appointments and resignations
- Fundraising and corporate restructuring actions
Template structure
- Meeting or written resolution context
- Background and rationale
- Resolved actions with explicit authority
- Effective date and signature block
Operational rules
Keep every signed resolution linked to the affected cap table entry, contract, or filing requirement so evidence is never fragmented.
