Corporate law contains legal frameworks for how corporations or other business entities are established, run, and dissolved. It also contains many of the rules and obligations of all parties involved with a corporation—such as shareholders, directors, and management—and provides a legal framework within which companies can operate. Corporate law is very important in the Democratic Republic of Congo, as it provides legal certainty and a level of structure within the rapidly developing and complex business environment. Good corporate governance creates an environment that attracts investors, reduces legal risks, and contributes to long-term corporate stability. Corporations that understand and comply with corporate law are better able to grow, remain viable, and create partnerships than those that do not.

One company making a significant contribution to helping other businesses navigate Congolese corporate law is TI&A SCA. TI&A provides practical support for companies at every step of the development process, whether they are local or international, by advising them on how to establish a corporation, create good corporate governance, comply with local and international law, and manage their obligations as corporations under the law. TI&A has extensive knowledge of DR Congo Corporate Law and the OHADA framework, so they can effectively assist their clients in establishing their companies legally and in compliance with local laws, regulations, and customs, along with setting up the proper legal structure. This assistance allows TI&A’s client companies to focus on their business while remaining in compliance with local laws.

Professional corporate legal services are advantageous. First, they provide certainty when starting or changing a company. Second, good governance makes it less likely that management and shareholders will argue about how to run the company. Appears to me that a third benefit is that an individual will receive solid legal advice that will help inform his/her decision making, which protects him/her from losing or wasting money as a result of poor decisions related to growth, investment, or expansion. Fourth, by ensuring compliance with corporate law requirements, an organization can avoid penalties, delays, or interruptions to operation. Each of these benefits is particularly important for foreign investors entering into DRC; understanding the local legal system is critical for the success of any investment.
