There are 233,656 companies that are controlled in this way and there are 107,737 controlling companies.

The City Code on Takeovers and Mergers is a set of rules that apply to companies listed on the stock exchange. It is administered by The Panel on Takeovers and Mergers. Prior to 2006, the rules were voluntary but they are now statutory. In June 2018, the government made changes to the UK's merger regime to recognise the growing importance of small British businesses in developing cutting edge technology products with national security applications. The government amended the threshold tests for businesses in the military, dual-use, computing hardware and quantum technology sectors that are likely to have security implications. Ministers can intervene when the target business's UK turnover is more than �1 million, (down from �70 million under the previous rules) Recent acquisions: Zoopla Property Group PLC acquired Dot Zinc Ltd John Wood Group PlC acquired Amec Foster Wheeler PLC Busy Bees Nurseries acquired Treetops Nurseries The British United Provident Association acquired Oasis Dental Care Drax Group PLC acquired Opus Energy Group Ltd Full Product DetailsAuthor: John D BlackburnPublisher: Dellam Publishing Limited Imprint: Dellam Publishing Limited Dimensions: Width: 21.60cm , Height: 5.90cm , Length: 28.00cm Weight: 2.676kg ISBN: 9781912736058ISBN 10: 1912736055 Pages: 1192 Publication Date: 26 October 2018 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In stock We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
