This Practice Note looks at the selling restrictions under UK law which may apply to companies wishing to sell their equity securities to investors. In particular, this Practice Note considers the impact of the financial promotion regime and the prospectus regime and it provides some example wording of selling restrictions which are typically used in documents relating to an offering of a company's equity securities in the UK. This Practice Note was written in partnership with Maegen Morrison and Danette Antao of Hogan Lovells.
