demerger receivable I found reference to my suggestion with Hydro, Opera and various organizations.
The term refers not to a claim/krav, rather to a specific accounting item that incurs upon the sale of one company to another - Norwegian Tax Act and Private Limited Companies Act...
Leif Henriksen Feb 6, 2020:
OK, but in order for "receivables" to be accounted, a claim has to be established.
jeffrey engberg (asker) Feb 6, 2020:
demerger receivable... thanks Leif. Have to chew on this one.
I am reading a connection to the Norwegian taxation act and companies act.
The "fordringer" in such mergers are considered "receivables" for accounting and tax purposes.

Norwegian term (edited): fusjon- fisjonsfordring /på /

merger-demerger claim /against /

Two differences from the first answer:

1. it is a bilateral or 'bipartisan' merger-demerger scene and

2, prepositionally, it is en ....fisjonsfordring på - demerger claim against or - not so neatly in line with the på as being on - account receivable from.

possibly being a claim for any *amount or balance due* (from...). I don't recall - from my time indentured to City of London Champagne-Socialist company lawyers - any merger-demerger scenario, but that had been mid-1970s when such schemes may have been in their infancy.
Example sentence:

The merger / demerger proposal and the reports of the auditor and of the board is presented to the shareholders of each company involved in the merger / demerger. The financial statements of the 3 preceding years should also be made available to the share
