Law/Patents - Law (general) / British Law
English term or phrase: Articles of Association
The articles of association of a company, often simply referred to as the articles (and then often capitalised as an abbreviation for the official name, which is a proper noun and usually contains the company name), are the regulations governing the relationships between the shareholders and directors of the company, and are a requirement for the establishment of a company under the law of the United Kingdom and many other countries. Together with the memorandum of association, they form the constitution of a company. The equivalent in the United States is Articles of incorporation.

The document I have has the 3 different documents as separate exhibits, I must have a different name for each;

Estatutos de constitución


Explanation:
El "Memorandum of Association" es el acta constitutiva de la sociedad, mientras que los "articles" son los estatutos por los que se regirá la misma.
