SQE1 Business Law: Pre-emption Rights

Test your understanding of share allotments with these two SQE MCQs involving corporate finance, director powers, and statutory pre-emption rights protection for existing shareholders. At first glance, both scenarios involve a company issuing new ordinary shares that result in the dilution of existing shareholders. However, one question concerns an allotment for cash to an external investor, while the other examines an allotment for non-cash consideration to acquire a software business. Learn the difference between: • Allotment for cash versus allotment for non-cash consideration. • When statutory pre-emption rights strictly apply to protect existing investors. • Why an asset acquisition avoids statutory pre-emption rights under the Companies Act.
