Explanation:
Looking at the definition of by-laws on the internet, it would seem I misspoke about their meaning and they refer to a lower level company document. The internet is a fantastic tool.
Sorry, Marius, but according to article 7 of the Law on Companies, 'steigimo aktas/sutartis' is translated 'instrument of incorporation'. Easy enough to confuse 'instrument' with 'articles'. I Believe the usual UK term is 'memorandum of association' for multiple shareholder companies. I think the Lithuanian law uses 'instrument' so that the same term is used for both single and multiple shareholder companies.
As to http://www.anguillafsc.com/PDF/Legislation/CoRegs.pdf, this is secondary legislation for the country of Anguilla in the Caribbean. And they use 'articles of incorporation' to translate 'istatai'.
