Description
In this session, seasoned industry legal and business experts will touch on the most recent trends in PE driven M&A in light of the challenges that deal makers in today’s unpredictable markets are facing. While their LPs expect returns to be materialized and new capital to be deployed, PE funds are currently struggling with limited and expensive sources of debt financing and gaps in expected valuations. Resourceful as they are, however, innovative deal and financing structures have been invented to bridge these gaps and to ensure continued deal making.
