BIBA Webinar - UK Mergers & Acquisitions in a post-COVID-19 world presented by Weightmans 

Sarah Walton and William Sharpe will consider how M&A activity and structures may look in a post COVID-19 world.  As the COVID-19 pandemic spread across the globe, mergers & acquisitions activity, like the rest of the global economy, rapidly slowed, with many transactions being placed into hibernation or being completely aborted as businesses started to focus internally on managing their way through the crisis and looked to preserve cash on their balance sheet. As lockdown restrictions across the globe start to be eased and businesses begin to consider their plans beyond the initial phase of the pandemic, we consider how M&A activity and structures may look in a post COVID-19 world as it is likely that there have been significant, and potentially long-lasting, implications for future M&A deal making in the UK.

This interactive session will qualify for Continuing Professional Development (CPD) accreditation for BIBA members attending and returning a feedback form.
