Whether your company is a serial acquirer or only grows more deliberately through acquisition, as in-house counsel you need to have command of the tax considerations that drive deal structure, valuation, and integration. Your tax department plays a key role in analyzing an acquisition and structuring the deal and you need to understand the issues that drive deal structure.

Attend this Webinar and:
