Social Housing & Trading Subsidiaries for Charities - The Legal Issues

Introduction

This virtual classroom seminar will explore why charities set trading subsidiaries, with a particular focus on social housing, the models for these entities, how they are funded, and the governance, regulatory and legal parameters and potential hazards associated with them, from creation to operation.

Whether you are working for or advising a charity with diversified income, or practitioners advising on a transaction where the counterparty is the trading arm of a charity, this session will equip you with the tools to deal with the legal issues.

This virtual classroom seminar will balance practice, using case studies, and the legal and regulatory guidance which underpins this.
