Demerger consideration (Swedish: delningsvederlag) is the compensation the shareholders of the transferring company receive in a demerger. It consists mainly of shares in the receiving company or companies, but may also include cash. How the consideration is allocated is set out in the demerger plan.
Once the demerger is registered with Bolagsverket, shareholders receive their new shares. These must be entered in each company's share ledger with the correct shares and owners, so that each ownership picture is accurate, for example in a spin-off.
A demerger means a limited company's assets and liabilities are transferred to one or more other companies.
