The beginning of 2026 provides an opportunity for Singapore companies to conduct an early compliance review and confirm alignment with regulatory requirements. Regular review of corporate governance, statutory records, and filing obligations helps companies manage compliance more effectively throughout the year. (Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority, 2025)
๐ 1. Early-Year Compliance Review โ supported by One IBC
Singapore companies are required to maintain accurate and up-to-date statutory records, including information on directors, shareholders, and company officers. Reviewing these records at the start of the year allows companies to identify and correct any inconsistencies arising from changes made in the previous year. (ACRA, 2025)
With One IBC supporting compliance coordination and corporate review, companies can ensure that records and filings are aligned with current regulatory expectations.
๐ 2. Governance and Disclosure Obligations
Directors are responsible for ensuring that corporate governance practices meet statutory requirements, including disclosure of relevant interests and compliance with applicable rules under the Companies Act. Early review supports adherence to these obligations throughout the year. (ACRA, 2025)
๐ 3. Annual Filing and Reporting Preparation
Compliance reviews conducted in January help companies prepare for upcoming filing deadlines, including annual returns and financial reporting submissions. Confirming data accuracy early reduces the risk of late or incorrect filings later in the year. (ACRA, 2025)
๐ 4. Review of Beneficial Ownership and Control Records
Companies must maintain accurate information in the Register of Controllers and ensure beneficial ownership details are current. Regular review supports transparency and compliance with regulatory expectations. (ACRA, 2025)
๐งญ 5. Planning for Compliance Throughout 2026
An early compliance kick-off allows companies to establish a clear compliance calendar for the year ahead. This supports consistent monitoring of obligations and helps ensure regulatory requirements are met in a timely manner. (ACRA, 2025)
With structured support from One IBC, Singapore companies can conduct an early compliance review in 2026 and maintain alignment with regulatory and governance requirements throughout the year.
