With the steady increase of cross-national relationships in virtually every industry, it is inevitable that a domestic company, irrespective of size, will at some point face a cross-border bankruptcy matter. Consideration of this international component is critical for the in-house practitioner to effectively protect the client when structuring transactions. When the inevitable cross-border insolvency arises, a basic knowledge of the applicable rules will be equally critical to minimize the interruption to operations and potential loss of revenue.

If your company is doing business outside the United States, you need to attend this session to be brought up-to-date on all applicable privacy laws.

Data security laws are rapidly changing the way organizations manage information worldwide. Breach investigations are becoming increasingly complex and pose greater risk including potential international effect. Recent breaches in the UK have literally changed the political landscape there.

Conducting commercial business involves a multitude of risks, and rendering in-house services as a legal professional involves responsibility for decisions that affect the risk profile of your company. This session will examine significant areas of direct corporate risk: regulatory, product/service performance, compliance, reputation and financial, among others, as well as mechanisms for effectively managing such risks.

Sooner or later, you are going to be asked to sort out a mess caused by one of your key customers … or maybe a key supplier … going bust. And the ramifications may spread over several borders. When urgent action is needed, who do you turn to? How can you protect your company’s interests? Or maybe secure its assets when they are in the hands of an organization facing insolvency? Gain or share some valuable knowledge with this panel who will examine some interesting scenarios.
