ATA Finances 9 Audit requirements for AGM and ASIC Rules - Companies limited by guarantee – simplified obligations From 28 June 2010, companies limited by guarantee are subject to a number of law changes including:  prohibition on payment of dividends to members  preparation and audit or review of financial reports, and  annual financial reporting to members.
