Ownership & Governance

Transfer Restrictions

By Tim Nichols

In plain English

Rules limiting when, how, or to whom an ownership interest or contractual right may be transferred. They may require consent, create purchase rights, or prohibit specified transactions. An attempted transfer's effect depends on the wording and law; economic transfer rights and admission to management may be treated separately.
