In addition, corporations must keep a book of minutes of the Board of Directors. Each of the books has different purposes, and the information contained in them allows the legal control of the activities of the company, and of the changes in its structure, for example, any change in the bylaws of the company must be recorded in the book of General Assemblies for its due registration in the National Registry, changes in shareholdings must be recorded in the Register of Shareholders or Quota Holders book, and in the case of corporations, decisions to dispose of assets representing more than 10% of the company's net worth must be recorded in the Board of Directors book.
