Simmons & Simmons’ Takeover Code Resources, launched in February, comprise a collection of tools and resources for corporate finance professionals engaged in UK public takeovers. Simmons & Simmons is a firm with a wealth of expertise in UK public mergers and acquisitions and with lawyers who, through their experiences on secondment with the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers, have an in-depth knowledge of the Code and the workings of the Panel. The subsite offers the facility to search the Code Index, along with direct linkage to the text of the Code itself. The Panel Statements search provides a full set of summaries of all Panel Statements since 1968, again with access to the full text of the Panel Statements themselves. Also published are details of Panel consultation papers and responses. Finally, there is an introduction to the Panel and the Code with draft presentations which can be downloaded in a variety of formats.
Thanks to “hairymary” whose Sparkly Trainers weblog brought this to our attention.
