6th Business Law Forum: Business Restructuring and Compliance – New Trends

Since the onset of the banking crisis deal-making has become difficult and volumes have fallen away. The restructuring of the different sectors of the corporate landscape, as well as a combination of liquidity pressures, a tough economic environment and ongoing regulatory changes, continue to have a considerable impact on business models and are likely to be key factors affecting M&A deals.

Putting together M&A restructuring deals, such as split-ups, spin-offs and carve-outs, in the context of their tax implications and compliance requirements, before, during and after completion of the deal, is one of those challenges that every experienced advisor in the legal, accounting and financing industry wants to take and likes to face.

At the next UIA Business Forum in Lisbon in 2014, members of the Banking, Corporate, M&A and Tax Commissions of the UIA will discuss such matters together with representatives of the financial sector.  One of the highlights of the seminar will be a particular focus on emerging market transactions, involving practitioners from Asia, Africa and Latin America.

Seminar organised by the UIA with the support of the Portuguese Bar Association and Iberian Lawyer as media partner
