The investment management association ("IMA") has republished the Transaction Guidelines originally published under ABI. These guidelines address various facets of equity capital market transactions, and were re-issued on 10 November 2014.

The guidelines are in substantially the same form as those published by ABI, with the following exceptions:

  • References to ABI have changed to IMA;
  • The High Growth Sector of the main market replaces the High Growth Sector of AIM; and
  • A paragraph detailing the IMA's responsibility for the earlier published guidance has been added.

The Transaction Guidelines are available at: http://www.ivis.co.uk/media/10296/Transaction-Guidelines-November-2014-.pdf.

The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.
