Management Buyouts
What is next?
A Management Buyout (MBO) occurs when a new holding company is formed to acquire the shares in an existing trading company.
It is typically used as a way to allow an existing shareholder to sell their shares using the company to finance the transaction in circumstances where a company purchase of own shares is not possible.
Typically, the shareholders of the new holding company will be the trading company’s existing management team, but it can also include existing shareholders (who exchange their shares for holding company shares) and previously unconnected parties/buyers.
Next Steps
Following the completion of the MBO it may be desirable to consider whether steps should be taken to consolidate the corporate structure.
