What is a board resolution?
A board resolution is a formal record of a decision made by an organization's board of directors. It documents official actions, such as approving a contract or opening a bank account, along with who voted and when, which together give the decision clear legal standing and a verifiable history.
What should a board resolution include?
A board resolution should state the organization's name, the date, the decision in clear resolved statements, the names of those proposing and seconding it, the voting outcome, and the necessary signatures. Referencing the specific meeting where it passed strengthens the record and makes it easier to verify later.
Who signs a board resolution?
The resolution is typically signed by the board chair and the secretary, who certifies that it accurately reflects the board's actual vote. Other directors may sign it as well, confirming their agreement and making the finished document a reliable, defensible record of the decision the board reached together.
