In this episode of our public M&A podcast series, we talk about the UK Takeover Panel’s latest consultation paper (PCP 2026/1) which seeks views on a series of miscellaneous changes to the Takeover Code. Proposals being consulted on include:
- when a voting agreement between a shareholder and the directors of a company will result in them being treated as acting in concert;
- a change to the definition of reverse takeover; and
- a change to the rules on extending a put up or shut up (PUSU) deadline.
