Boardroom Australia acquires the Australian Employee Share Plan (ESP) business, Solium Capital (Australia) Pty Ltd, from Morgan Stanley

Henslow is pleased to have acted as Corporate Advisor to BoardRoom Australia on the acquisition of the Australian employee share plan business of Solium Capital (Australia) Pty Ltd (Solium), which trades as Morgan Stanley at Work and Shareworks by Morgan Stanley.

Solium is a market leading specialist provider of employee share plan (ESP) administration services with this acquisition expanding BoardRoom’s existing ESP presence by providing access to Solium’s ASX200 and private clients.

The acquisition is highly complementary to BoardRoom’s service offerings – Share Registry, ESP, Corporate Secretarial and Payroll Services – which will benefit existing clients whilst creating opportunities for companies with both domestic and global ESP requirements.

Post acquisition, BoardRoom is now positioned as one of the leading ESP service providers within the Australian market.

Henslow has been a long-standing corporate advisor to BoardRoom and we look forward to further building upon our relationship as they continue their expansion across the APAC corporate services landscape.

This transaction further adds to Henslow’s strong track record in the financial and professional services sector advising several clients on their M&A growth ambitions.
