Document background
The Private Equity Shareholders Agreement is essential when a company receives private equity investment in Singapore. It covers crucial aspects such as board representation, reserved matters requiring investor consent, share transfer restrictions, tag-along and drag-along rights, and exit provisions. The document must comply with Singapore's regulatory framework, including the Companies Act and MAS guidelines. This agreement is particularly important as it balances the interests of PE investors seeking investment protection with those of existing shareholders, while ensuring compliance with Singapore's corporate governance requirements.
