The Takeover Code
Keeping up with takeover law and practice in this turbulent economic climate
Introduction
The Takeover Directive may have settled into UK practice, but changes are continuing apace. The number of takeovers by way of a scheme of arrangement is still rising: in 2007, 47 targets were acquired by way of schemes in comparison to only 8 UK companies in 2002. The Takeover Panel is now more powerful than ever – illustrated by its public rebuke of an investment bank in 2008.
Butterworths® fourth annual Takeover Code conference will focus on the recent developments in takeover law and analyse the impact of these changes in practice. Chaired by Chris Pearson of Norton Rose, our expert speaker panel will steer you through the latest developments and offer essential guidance for you to use in practice. Read more >>
