- Succession Planning Using Cascading Share Classes in a BVI Company : Succession planning is critical in the preservation of wealth, but can be hindered by concerns over the high cost of establishing a robust trust structure. This article, which presents the cost-effective alternative of incorporating or converting an existing BVI company into a company with cascading share classes, attracted a lot of attention from Asia-based readers in 2025.
- The Effect of Irregularities on the Validity of a Creditors’ Meeting: The courts are generally reluctant to interfere with the outcomes of creditors’ meetings at which resolutions are voted on and passed. After all, such resolutions are decided and voted on by the creditors, thereby representing the wants of the majority. In the Zipmex decision, however, the Singapore High Court invalidated the outcome of a creditors’ meeting on the basis of substantive irregularities. This article outlined the issues at hand, and the implications of the decision.
