Session information

Session three - When the deal goes sour: how and what do you litigate?

Thursday 24 October (1400 - 1515)

Description

As a consequence of the increase of cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in Asia and globally, combined with increase in interest rates, trade tensions and sovereignty protection, litigation has again become more prevalent following the closing of M&A deals. This session will discuss the most common post-closing litigation issues, and how to professionally handle them. Among other issues, the panel will discuss price adjustment, representations and warranties (R&W) litigation, and information rights post-closing.
