Case study
Corporate secretarial services for a US-based international mining company
The client needed a partner who could undertake a health check on their legal entities and also manage their legal entities in Africa year on year. The client wanted to explore a cost-effective solution, as opposed to hiring permanent resources in-house, while still retaining visibility of ongoing work.

Designing and implementing a new entity management strategy for a rapidly growing company
The client, a world leader in the travel industry, had grown quickly over the years with entities in 50+ jurisdictions globally but corporate entity management had failed to keep up. There was no system, no process and often no documentation in place.
SOLUTION
SOLUTION
- Kalexius deployed a two-pronged strategy covering (i) a consulting phase to map the client’s structure, understand its needs and design the best solution including CLM software, internal processes and the right team and (ii) an implementation phase where Kalexius delivers ongoing corporate housekeeping services to the client.
- The implementation phase consisted in leveraging (i) a dedicated, multi-shore Kalexius team, (ii) state-of-the-art entity software through our partner and (iii) continuously improving processes, including the coordination of local counsel and monitoring of local regulatory changes in all jurisdictions.
- The client is fully compliant in all jurisdictions. Internal stakeholders (e.g. local managers) are engaged and actively take part in maintaining corporate compliance.
- The Kalexius team was made fully responsible for corporate compliance throughout the client’s organisation while being entirely integrated with the client’s internal legal team.
- Kalexius leveraged technology and its extensive experience in project management, process design and international counsel management to develop lean and impactful corporate compliance processes that address internal stakeholders’ needs while minimizing operational disruption.
