Overview of Mergers & Acquisitions in Malta
Mergers & Acquisitions – discover malta’s M&A frameworks
Mergers and acquisitions are regulated in Malta by various statutes and regulators. The Companies Act (Cap. 356, Laws of Malta) sets out the ways in which an M&A may be effected (by acquisition or by amalgamation), and the documents, approvals and procedures required to effect each kind of M&A.
Furthermore, the Malta Competition and Consumer Affairs Authority (MCCAA) also supervises the consummation of M&A transactions. In addition, M&A transactions that meet certain turnover thresholds are required to be notified to the MCCAA. In fact, some sector-specific regulators may also require to be notified of M&A transactions involving entities in the sectors which they regulate.
