Legal and reputational wrangles in the PE world: an interview

Friday 30 September (1545 - 1615)

Description

Kaye Wiggins is the Private Capital Correspondent of the Financial Times, based in London. She spends a good deal of her time understanding the inner workings of the industry and types of events that threaten the reputations of sponsors. Whether it be the conduct of senior executives or questionable business practices in portfolio companies there are big risks to be navigated. Deal lawyers need to understand how they can help to guide clients past any looming problems as well as understanding how quickly mistakes can cause damage.

This interview will offer valuable insights into these important issues.
