Event Synopsis:

As international M&A activities continue to grow, new merger control regimes have proliferated across the globe. In addition, national governments have significantly heightened their enforcement of merger control rules, resulting to another layer of complexity for the industries. This increasing merger control regimes and intensified enforcement have led to increased execution risk for cross-border deals. Understanding the common issues in merger control laws and regulations may equip potential acquirers and merger control counsel with the tools needed in navigating the complex labyrinth of global merger control.

In a two-hour live Webcast, a panel of thought leaders and practitioners assembled by The Knowledge Group will discuss the significant issues in International Merger Control. They will provide an in-depth discussion of some of the most complicated merger control regimes in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas.

Key issues that will be covered in this course are:
- Undertaking Multijurisdictional Analysis
- Navigating Merger Control Regimes: Authorities and Legislation
- Notification and Impact to Transaction Timeline
- Managing Local Counsel, Timeline and Competing Priorities
