Partial Exit & Minority Stake Sales

Handle structures partial exits and minority stake sales for founders, families, and private capital investors who refuse to lose control. We engineer transaction terms, governance, and enforcement pathways so liquidity events strengthen the institution instead of fragmenting it.

From early secondary sales to late-stage recapitalisations, we align shareholders’ agreements, investor protections, and board dynamics to one execution model. Capital in, control defined, downside ring-fenced, and jurisdiction anchored in the UAE.

Minority transactions test more than price; they test governance, alignment, and long-term control. Handle structures partial exits so founders, families, and institutions secure liquidity while preserving their ability to lead.

Our model integrates M&A execution, shareholder structuring, and regulatory fluency across the UAE and key offshore jurisdictions. The outcome is defined: capital realised, rights enforced, control preserved.

• Boardroom-level experience on founder, family, PE, and sovereign-linked mandates
• Integrated legal, financial, and governance architecture in a single execution track
• Rigorous protection of voting, veto, and information rights for continuing shareholders
• Regulatory alignment across UAE onshore, DIFC, ADGM, and common offshore vehicles
• Clear enforcement pathways for drag, tag, exit waterfalls, and deadlock scenarios
• Disciplined processes that avoid value leakage, misalignment, and future litigation

We lead minority stake and partial exit mandates from strategy to post-closing governance, with every step controlled for enforceability and capital certainty.

Our approach aligns founders, families, and investors around one documented structure; price, rights, and exit pathways defined upfront and protected across jurisdictions.

• Readiness assessment: cap table, shareholder dynamics, and governance risk mapping
• Deal strategy: stake sizing, valuation framework, and timing of the liquidity event
• Investor process: longlist, approach strategy, data room, and competitive tension design
• Term sheet and LOI negotiation: economics, ratchets, preferences, and governance anchors
• Shareholders’ agreements and corporate restructuring where required
• Regulatory and jurisdictional structuring across UAE, DIFC, ADGM, and offshore entities
• Closing execution: CPs, funds flow, sign-and-close mechanics, and security arrangements
• Post-deal governance implementation: board constitution, information rights, and reporting disciplines
