Statute overview

About this statute

This provision is the preamble to a law of 7 September 1987 modifying the Luxembourg law on commercial companies and introducing a section on mergers. This section applies to Luxembourg public limited companies, except where an absorbed or disappearing company is in bankruptcy, concordat, or a similar special procedure. A merger is carried out either by absorbing one or more companies into another company, or by forming a new company. L’article définit la fusion par absorption comme un transfert de patrimoine d’une ou plusieurs sociétés vers une autre, sans liquidation, avec attribution d’actions aux actionnaires et éventuellement une soulte en espèces limitée. This article defines a merger by formation of a new company and allows it even if disappearing companies are in liquidation, as long as they have not started distributing assets to shareholders.
