Our team is advising PSG on the restructuring of the group, which includes the unbundling of all PSG Group's shares in PSG Konsult, Kaap Agri, Curro, Stadio and CA Sales, which are all listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. This restructuring falls under the Companies Act 71 of 2008 because, ahead of its delisting, the PSG Group is disposing of the majority of its assets and repurchasing shares from the majority of shareholders in terms of a scheme of arrangement.
