Role of the Registries
As a public and ministerial office, the clerk is responsible - as are clerks in other jurisdictions - for administrative services at the Court, welcoming people to the court, keeping registers, updating matters and storing minutes and archives. However, the registry at the Commercial Court is also responsible for keeping the Trade and Companies Register, managing insolvency proceedings (bankruptcy) and keeping the pledge register (securities and pledges). Its role is mainly to attend to legal publications for any entity, without that entity needing to provide justification. The clerk (registrar) is a liberal professional in the service of the commercial legal system, and players in economic development.
