BACKGROUND INFORMATION

This session should cover the main corporate procedures and corporate deliverables involved in terms of the Companies Act, Chapter 386 of the Laws of Malta in relation to mergers and divisions of companies from a local perspective. The session will also then provide participants with a basic understanding of mergers and divisions from a “cross-border” perspective as well as cross-border conversions since the legislation in this area was overhauled at an EU level, quite recently.

SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION

Mergers, Divisions and Conversions: a local & cross-border analysis

Why is the session of relevance to our members?

Members of MIA may benefit from this session as accountants and auditors may be involved in these corporate processes both as independent experts which are in some cases required to be appointed and may also be required to assist generally from an accounting perspective so this session should provide attendees with an overview of the procedures from a legal corporate perspective which may assist them in the provision of their services

Target Audience

Directors, Company Secretaries, Auditors, Accountants
