Advisory Explained

Minority Protection in Shareholders’ Agreements


Listen Later

In this episode of Advisory Explained, host Kosie Kritzinger sits down with Marcus Schaefer from Fairbridges to unpack shareholders' agreements and the importance of minority protection.

Their discussion explores the difference between a shareholders' agreement and a Memorandum of Incorporation (MOI), along with the key rights and protections available to minority shareholders. Marcus explains concepts like reserved matters, veto rights, and tag-along and drag-along provisions in practical terms.

They also cover what happens when agreements are weak or conflict with the MOI, and share guidance for both majority and minority shareholders when entering into or reviewing an agreement.

This episode is a must-listen for business owners and investors looking to better understand shareholder rights and reduce risk.
