A demerger plan is the plan the board of directors draws up ahead of a demerger of a limited company.

What is a demerger plan?

A demerger plan (Swedish: delningsplan) is the plan the board of directors draws up ahead of a demerger of a limited company. It states, among other things, which assets and liabilities are transferred, what demerger consideration shareholders receive and a timetable. The demerger plan must be filed with Bolagsverket.

 

The demerger plan and the share ledger

When the demerger is carried out, the shareholders of the transferring company usually receive shares in the receiving company as consideration. The new owners must then be entered in that company's share ledger.
