Expertise

Corporate & Commercial

Transactions, governance and the agreements a business actually runs on.

Corporate work at a boutique is rarely one clean transaction. It is a share purchase that turns on a regulatory notification, a joint venture that needs a deadlock mechanism nobody wants to use, or a group that has to migrate a vehicle into Mauritius before an investment can close.

We act on acquisitions and reorganisations, draft the governance that holds a structure together after completion, and prepare the commercial agreements the business relies on day to day.

Joint venture control: shareholdings above, reserved matters below.

Who we advise

  • Corporate groups and operating businesses
  • Founders and early-stage companies raising investment
  • Investors acquiring or disposing of Mauritian vehicles
  • Joint venture partners and minority shareholders
  • International groups migrating vehicles into Mauritius
