- what transactions are eligible for tax free demerger
- traps and pitfalls in applying the demerger rules
- stamp duty and commercial issues in demergers
- how the new rules can successfully be used in divorce matters, admission of minority shareholders, asset protection, sale of business, business/family succession planning and mergers/acquisitions.
