Les avocats sont-ils les nouveaux chefs d'orchestre des fusions & acquisitions ?Pour répondre à cette interrogation, j'ai eu l'opportunité, le mois dernier, d'échanger avec Catherine Naroz, Counsel en Corporate/M&A chez Clifford Chance Paris. Loin de se limiter à cette simple question, ce moment fut l'occasion d'une immersion profonde dans l'univers du droit des affaires et dans le parcours de Catherine Naroz. Pour moi, cet entretien a été particulièrement instructif, me permettant de découvrir le point de vue unique et le monde des avocats spécialisés dans la finance d'entreprise (M&A, capital-investissement, etc.). Au cours de cette interview, Catherine partage avec nous son parcours professionnel, en détaillant les différentes étapes de sa carrière, depuis ses études. Elle nous fait part également des enjeux actuels de sa profession et du secteur, le tout exposé dans un langage à la fois précis et accessible. Pour conclure, elle partage ses conseils pour ceux qui ambitionnent de se diriger vers ce métier, ce secteur, et plus largement, qui aspirent à une carrière professionnelle couronnée de succès.Hébergé par Ausha.

In today's episode I speak with Eli Albrecht who is an Associate at Gibson Dunn's Washington D.C. office where he is a member of the corporate practice with a focus on private equity and mergers and acquisitions. In addition to his day job, Eli writes about his own path in the legal profession primarily on LinkedIn where, in his words, he focuses on balancing life as a private equity lawyer, husband, and LawDad in a way that is "fully integrated." He shares openly about finding the balance between being a fully engaged dad and working in a highly demanding legal practice and how he practices his faith while also practicing law. In our conversation we discuss his path to the law, a day in the life of a corporate M&A lawyer in a big international law firm, the skills that help corporate lawyers stand out (and how to acquire those skills after law school), why M&A law is like wedding planning, how he navigates being a Sabbath-observant Jew in an always-on profession, the importance of enjoying the stage you are at, rejuvenating during the slow times so you are ready in the fast times, his personal approach (and journey) to being an effective lawyer while also being a engaged father, and more. This episode is sponsored, edited, and engineered by LawPods, a professional podcast production company for busy attorneys. *** Want to Support the Podcast in 2 minutes or less?

Jade Hendricks is a woman on a mission. Or rather, a two-part mission – to lead by example and drive results in her role as AVP of Investor Ops at a private equity firm and to use her unique skill set to help shift the perspective of wealth and legacy in disenfranchised communities. Jade sits down with Tone and Larry for a candid conversation around all things related to growing up in Milwaukee, financial empowerment, and racial equity. After sitting down with Jade, at least one thing is clear—she personifies the African proverb “Each One, Teach One”.  Excerpt from an online article: “Her foundational childhood experiences and her learnings at Morgan Stanley drove Hendricks to a deeper calling - to transfer her wealth management and financial literacy skills to help educate and empower underserved communities. She is actively involved in teaching financial literacy and providing 1:1 mentoring, and college and scholarship coaching to dozens of high school students through her roles with nonprofits SecureFutures and ArtWorks for Milwaukee. She also recently launched her "Building the Dream Foundation," which is a scholarship fund of her own to award two high school students with a college scholarship each year, and she shares tips through her "Personal Finance Fridays" newsletter and as host of the Corporate Creative Podcast.” More About Jade:Jade I. Hendricks is the Assistant Vice President of Investor Operations at MLG Capital, a Financial Education Instructor (CFEI), and host of the Corporate Creative podcast. While her day job focuses on managing operations and communications, by night she is using her platforms to educate and empower Black and brown students and professionals.Jade graduated from Fisk University in Nashville, TN, with a dual degree in Business Administration and Spanish. She then moved to Chicago, where she worked for Morgan Stanley in a number of roles, including Operations, Business Development, DEI and Wealth Education. In 2018, Jade finally returned home for what she thought was a pit stop on her way to her next destination. After getting involved with local organizations including SecureFutures and ArtWorks for Milwaukee, she decided to pursue a job opportunity in the city and landed a role with MLG.Jade's overall mission is to surround herself with people who reflect the way she wants to see the world: diverse, engaging and evolving.https://www.twentysomethinandblack.com/blog/tag/Jade+Hendricks https://mlgcapital.com/mlg-team/jade-i-hendricks-2/ https://www.accesswire.com/709969/MLG-Capitals-Jade-Hendricks-Named-Woman-of-Influence-by-GlobeSt-Real-Estate-ForumTap in:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/corporate-creative-podcast/id1507698505https://www.linkedin.com/in/jadeihendricks/https://www.jadeihendricks.com/Welcome to the ScholarChip$ Podcast hosted by Tone Gaines and Larry Alexander.

Internationalising your practice by qualifying in multiple jurisdictions will be a focal point at the upcoming conference hosted by the UK Ministry of Justice and GREAT Legal Services in partnership with Africa Legal. In this podcast Michael Strain chats to Tom Pearson on why being dual qualified matters. Michael Strain, partner and Head of Corporate/M&A at Clyde & Co in East Africa took a rather unusual route to becoming dual qualified. He had already been practising corporate law in London when he got the opportunity to build the firm's regional office in Tanzania some ten years ago. He progressed his Tanzanian admission as soon as he could, including an oral examination before law school professors and senior members of the judiciary. The outcome was Strain holding qualifications from both England and Tanzania. He told Tom that he felt privileged to have been able to qualify in Tanzania, and that being versed in both jurisdictions set him apart from many other Africa-focused M&A lawyers. “Having an additional qualification, and in particular a qualification from England and Wales, is super helpful, not just in terms of the work that you can physically do, but also in terms of the optics that it shows to clients. It shows that you are indeed international.” Being dual qualified, Strain says, means being able to seamlessly assist clients based on familiarity with the legislation in a particular country, instead of going back and forth from the negotiating table to find answers. He found this to be especially useful when representing clients in mergers and acquisitions (M&A), his area of expertise, where deals are often governed by English law but have many important local nuances. In the podcast Strain elaborates on the benefits of having multiple qualifications and ends the conversation with this advice for young African M&A lawyers with a qualification in their home jurisdictions, and who are considering the England and Wales qualification: “Just do it. It's an investment that will certainly pay off.”

La RSE : “c'est un enjeu global, dont tout le monde s'est saisi tant du côté des collaborateurs, que des candidats. C'est un sujet de société, c'est pourquoi les entreprises n'ont plus d'autres choix que de prendre des engagements forts et de s'en saisir.” De plus en plus, les entreprises s'interrogent sur leur démarche RSE (Responsabilité Sociétale des entreprises). Mais quelle définition peut-on en faire ? En quoi cette conscience sociale et environnementale joue un rôle dans le recrutement ? Est-ce que la révolution verte sera encore plus rapide que la révolution digitale, grâce à la prise de conscience du caractère vital de la RSE ? La transition écologique est-elle créatrice d'emploi ?  Ce nouvel épisode de Conversations RH de LHH Recruitment Solutions vous livre l'essentiel à savoir sur le sujet de la RSE et de la prise en compte par les entreprises de ces enjeux environnementaux et sociétaux. Nous sommes pour cela accompagnés sur ce sujet de trois invités experts : Sylvie Thomas : Directrice RSE chez Lexmark dans le secteur Europe Afrique et Moyen Orient depuis 2010, elle a pu travailler la stratégie environnementale de l'entreprise avec de nombreux projets s'appliquant à l'ensemble des processus métiers de l'organisation. Raphaèle Lhomel : Après avoir été directrice adjointe de la communication au sein du groupe Adecco, elle rejoint la direction de l'Impact Social et Environnemental en tant que responsable RSE. Elle accompagne alors le groupe et ses équipes dans leurs engagements sociétaux, environnementaux et territoriaux. Antonin Decosse : Il participe en 2011 au lancement du cabinet de recrutement de cadres et dirigeants Badenoch + Clark en France. Depuis 4 ans directeur exécutif, il possède une expertise dans le recrutement et l'évaluation de profils cadres sur les métiers Corporate (Métiers à impact, RH / Juridique, Finance, IT) et l'évaluation des collaborateurs en entreprise.

Dit is aflevering 51 van Licht op Legal. In deze aflevering gaat Juliette Wareman, advocaat Corporate/M&A bij Van Benthem & Keulen, in op fraude en misbruik van vennootschappen.Nederland kent veel BV's waarin een onderneming wordt gedreven. Op grond van de wet is de BV aansprakelijk voor haar verplichtingen. De personen die namens de BV handelen zijn dat in beginsel niet. Dat is goed om het ondernemersklimaat in Nederland te stimuleren, maar daar zit ook een keerzijde aan. Het biedt personen binnen een BV de ruimte om hier misbruik van te maken. Dit wordt ook wel aangeduid als misbruik van vennootschappen.In deze podcast gaat Juliette in op hoe u misbruik van vennootschappen herkent en wat u als gedupeerde partij daartegen kunt doen. Daarnaast bespreekt zij waar zowel bedrijfsjuristen als verkopers op moeten letten bij het aangaan van overeenkomsten. Juliette sluit de podcast af met een aantal praktische tips.Wilt u meer informatie over fraude en misbruik van vennootschappen?

Interview on "M&A Stories on importance of integration management tools in M&A" with Dharmendra Singh Show Notes: M&A Integrations have a lot of challenges so when Dharmendra came out of a corporate job, he decided to address some of those issues. Integration processes in many organizations are not harmonized or don't get shared between different teams. Even if there is a playbook, deployment and tracking always remain a challenge. Integration management tools are not necessarily underrated but the industry still lacks awareness about the tool. Moreover, companies are concerned about sharing their data. Integration management tools can be used to manage the complete lifecycle of an M&A process. Project management is one of the aspects of an integration management tool. Team collaboration, communication, and coordination are key focus areas for these tools. On human resources in an integration project, it is good to build internal capability but at the same time, external help is required as well. But don't treat them as external. Treat them as an extension of the internal team. Managing integration itself is challenging. Without proper management tools, you are signing up for failure. So, watch out! ----- Listen to this episode and learn more about what Dharmendra Singh has to say about the importance of management tools during Post-Merger Integration. Dharmendra is a senior executive with several years of extensive global experience in the area of Corporate M&A development and software product development mainly in India, the US, and Europe. Extensive experience in formulating and articulating vision and strategy, building leadership teams. I also serve as a Chairman of the board of MergerWare and a regular speaker and panelist on VC, PE, and M&A topics at industry conferences & other events sponsored by internationally recognized associations worldwide. https://www.linkedin.com/in/dharmendrainsead/ https://www.mergerware.com/ ------- The hosts of the interview are: Anirvan Sen, CEO Fifth Chrome: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anirvansen/ Marcella Hall, HR M&A Expert: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hallmarcella/ ------- This interview is part of a series run by Fifth Chrome, a firm that enables experienced professionals to build "Future Capabilities for Business to thrive".

We sit down with Walker Wallace, managing partner of O'Melveny's Shanghai office, to discuss how foreign tech companies should think about entering the China market. It's worth noting that most tech start-ups should not even consider China entry in the early days, as building up tech and achieving a focused product-market fit should be the only priority, and a premature obsession over China could very well be a huge distraction. But for companies that have built up a relatively sustainable business and are looking to scale, a thoughtful, well executed China strategy could create significant value. Today we discuss: what type of tech companies should consider entering the China market? What should their key considerations be before designing a market entry strategy? What are the different options and structures available? How do JVs work, and what is the value exchange between JV partners? Any other best practices to keep in mind? Walker J. Wallace is a leader in O'Melveny's China practice. He has extensive experience in international transactions and has worked with clients in a wide range of projects across Asia, from multi-nationals seeking to invest in China, to private equity funds pursuing investment strategies in Southeast Asia. In China, Walker has helped clients negotiate the complexities of investing and structuring business operations in numerous industries, including consumer products, healthcare, real estate, software, media and entertainment, retail and education. Walker has been working in the Shanghai office since 1997. He is the former Chairman of the Legal Committee for the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, and is the co-author of “Acquisitions of Companies with Chinese Assets,” “Foreign Private Equity Investment in China: Which Way to the Exit?,” “Onshore Financial Investing in China,” and “Enforcement on Defaulted Loans and Mortgage on Real Property under Chinese Law.” Walker was named as a leading lawyer by Chambers Asia 2016/2017 under the categories “China, Corporate/M&A” and “China, Private Equity: Buyouts (International Firms)”. Walker earned his J.D. from Columbia University, and his B.A., cum laude from Williams College. He is admitted to the bar of New York.

Credit market turmoil is altering the global playing field in buyouts and acquisitions a field rife with complaints in recent years about too much money chasing too few good deals. The credit shortage puts pressure on pricing and transactional quality while also giving public companies a better shot at acquisitions that the more aggressive private equity firms might previously have snatched away. These are some practical implications of a paper presented at a recent Wharton conference sponsored by the Weiss Center for International Financial Research. The paper documents the pricing anomalies that have characterized private equity transactions in recent years. Chief among them: The greater the leverage applied to a deal the greater the price it has tended to command. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
