The rule that persons dealing with a company are deemed to have NOTICE of the contents of its public documents, such as the Memorandum and Articles, is termed:

The doctrine of CONSTRUCTIVE NOTICE holds that since the Memorandum, Articles and certain other public documents are registered and open to inspection, every person dealing with the company is deemed to have notice of their contents. This protects the company against outsiders who deal beyond its stated powers. It is qualified by the doctrine of INDOOR MANAGEMENT (Turquand), which presumes that the company's INTERNAL procedures have been complied with. Constructive notice operates at the level of public documents; indoor management protects internal regularity. The two doctrines balance outsider protection with the company's public record.
