    Hi all, just out of curiosity, if you have two summer VS and you receive a TC after the first scheme, are you allowed to still participate in the VS at another firm and decide to accept/decline the TC offer afterwards?

    Second OO28 on this - I wrote my experience of migrating to a foreign country at 15 due to my parents' business issues and how I coped with language barriers, culture shock and incorporated myself into the community, and then I said now studying in the UK I'm part of my uni's WP programme...

    I received HL AC on Saturday (I did my WG on the 6th or 7th) but have only seen one or two other people who also got it, so I think it's still early days!

    Not exactly sure but here's my understanding: for a share purchase all the assets/liabilities/obligations will remain in place so you don't have to deal with them separately, whereas for asset purchase you'll need formalities for each asset you purchase, and that the contracts with...
