Event Information

Cooley Partner Les Fagen will be speaking at the Issues in Risk Management event in Boston.

Deteriorating economic conditions are placing a premium on the need to improve liquidity and manage previously unidentified yet increasingly serious and complex risks. Given the current economic environment, many organizations are under tremendous financial stress, and face difficult decisions regarding restructuring, divesting assets, or seeking protection under the bankruptcy laws. Conversely, some organizations are in a position to take on additional risk, acquire assets, and seize opportunities made available by the economic downturn. In either case, buyers and sellers of distressed assets face unique risks. Join Marsh and featured law firms for What's the Deal? Managing Merger and Acquisition Risk in Today's Business Climate as we discuss mitigating risks and facilitating deals for companies who are considering:

• Divestiture of assets
• Restructuring
• Spinning off subsidiaries
• Acquisitions
