Mergers

skip content up to navigation menus

We have advised several leading national charities on mergers and transfers of operations, including the transfer of all or part of the charity’s operations to another charity or charities, or the creation of a new charity by a number of existing charities.

We work closely with Trustees, Directors, Company Secretaries and Legal Departments in the initial consideration of the proposed merger, confidentiality agreements, structuring of the deal, completion of the due diligence exercise and the negotiation of the transfer agreement with the other professional advisers.

Certain issues may require assistance from the Charity Commission and we have excellent dealings with the Commission enabling us to negotiate on our clients’ behalf.
