    Dear Tutor,

    I have difficulty understandstanding the difference between a spin-off and a demerger.
    Could you please help?

    Thank you

    There isn’t really a difference – they are both effectively the same things 🙂

    (Strictly a demerger would be reversing a previous merger, but these days the two words are used to mean the same.)
