Company law, International / offshoreWednesday 21 December 2022

In the matter of Avivo Group – FSD 145 of 2022 (RPJ)

Clare Stanley KC acts for the successful respondent in one of the first reported decisions in the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands in this important case on when the Court will appoint inspectors to examine into and report on the affairs of a company at the behest of a minority shareholder.  Although a case on s.64 of the Cayman Companies Act, similar statutory provisions are to be found in legislation throughout the Commonwealth, and hopefully this case will be a useful precedent in those jurisdictions too.  Clare worked with the team from Walkers Cayman and Walkers Dubai: Barnaby Gowrie, Luke Petith, Siobhan Sheridan and Carly Kilshaw.
