The Companies (Further Issue of Shares) Regulations 2020
The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan establishes regulations governing further issues of shares by companies, including right shares, bonus shares, and employee stock option schemes. The rules mandate specific board approvals, disclosure requirements in offer documents, and underwriting obligations for unsubscribed portions. Recent amendments have adjusted timelines for regulatory review and public comment periods, while also introducing provisions for exit opportunities for dissenting shareholders and restrictions on issuers with regulatory defaults or non-compliance.
