How Corporate Direction Centralises Corporate Onboarding and Client Records with SpeedyDD

Corporate Direction provides corporate administration, financial, and advisory services to start-ups and small to medium-sized businesses operating across multiple industries. From company structuring and administration to financial and operational support, their team helps businesses navigate the complexities of running and growing a company while staying compliant with regulatory requirements.

Managing this work means handling detailed corporate records, onboarding documentation, and Know Your Customer (KYC) information across many clients at once. As their client portfolio grew, the team needed a more structured way to collect documents, maintain company information, and access key details quickly without relying on scattered files or folders.

In this segment, we spoke with Simeon Micallef from Corporate Direction about how the team uses SpeedyDD to manage corporate onboarding, centralize company information, and simplify the way they collect, organize, and sign important client documents.

What challenge made you seek out SpeedyDD?

“When I onboard companies, I collect a large number of documents and details. I need passports, company certificates, shareholder information, beneficial owner details, registered addresses, tax numbers, everything that forms part of the corporate record.”

Before SpeedyDD, accessing that information often meant searching through individual documents or folders to find what was needed.

“I might know the information exists somewhere, but actually locating it quickly is another matter. If I need to confirm a shareholder, a registered address, or a VAT number, I could end up opening several documents just to find the right detail.”

For a team managing multiple client companies, that approach made everyday tasks slower than they needed to be.

Corporate Direction needed a way to centralize corporate information so that key details about each company could be accessed quickly without having to search through individual files.

What was your process before SpeedyDD and how did it affect your day to day work?

“A lot of my time was spent going through documents to find information.”

Client records were stored, but not always in a way that made them easy to retrieve. Important details such as shareholder information or registered company data were typically embedded inside documents rather than structured within a central system.

“It wasn’t that the information wasn’t available, it was just spread across documents, which meant I had to open multiple files to build the full picture of a client.”

As the number of clients increased, this process became harder to manage. Each new company meant another collection of documents to organize and reference.

The team needed a system where company details and documentation could live in one place rather than across multiple files.

What results have you seen since implementing SpeedyDD?

“The biggest difference is that everything is centralized.”

With SpeedyDD, each company has its own profile containing structured information such as directors, shareholders, registered addresses, and tax numbers. Instead of searching through documents, the team can access key corporate details directly from the client profile.

“If I need to check company information, it is there immediately. I do not need to go through several documents to find it.”

Another improvement has been how document renewals are tracked.

“In previous roles, reminders for things like passport renewals or utility bill updates were often tracked manually in spreadsheets. Now the system keeps track of expiry dates and sends notifications when something needs to be updated.”

The platform has also simplified the process of sending documents for signature.

“The internal signing system is very useful. If I have multiple shareholders who need to sign the same document, I can send it through SpeedyDD and collect the signatures much faster.”

For teams working with multiple companies and stakeholders, these efficiencies make a noticeable difference in everyday operations.

What benefits has SpeedyDD brought you on a personal or professional level?

“It makes my everyday work easier because the information is organized.”

Instead of searching through documents or piecing together company details manually, my team can rely on structured client profiles that contain the information we need.

For Corporate Direction, the ability to centralize onboarding documentation and corporate records has made managing client information much more straightforward.

“For corporate onboarding and maintaining company records, it is a very practical system.”
