Your shareholders’ Agreement

The shareholders' agreement ?

The shareholders’ agreement is a contract intended to regulate and structure the relations between the shareholders, and to set out for their rights and obligations towards the company. This contract provides previously accepted solutions in case of deadlock events (departure of a shareholder, death of a shareholder, sale/transfer of shares, etc.) and thus protects the interests and continuity of the company’s activities.
