Deal Deliberations
Committing your business to a deal is one of the biggest decisions any business owner, executive or board can make. But once that strategic choice is made, the success of the deal depends on a multitude of factors. That is the rationale behind Deal Deliberations, bringing together our experience, views and opinions on not just deal negotiation but critically all the other elements which help ensure the success of your corporate transactions.
Deal Deliberations looks at legal issues directly relevant to negotiating the deals but goes far beyond that to consider all other issues that add real value to ensuring deal success. Papers consider a range of issues from fundraising to disposal, people to technology, compliance to regulatory approval and data to ESG. We know how to spot the bear traps and we understand where smaller snares can trip you up. We know where there may be opportunities for you not just to do a deal but to do it better.
