M & A Tax Strategies for Attorneys: A 2009 Perspective Live Webcast
Jersey City, NJ, March 21, 2009 --(PR.com)-- The Knowledge Group/The Knowledge Congress Live Webcast Series, the leading producer of regulatory focused webcast recently announced that it has scheduled a live webcast on “M & A Tax Strategies for Attorneys: A 2009 Perspective”. This two-hour event is scheduled on Thursday, June 25, 2009, at 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM (ET – New York).
The tax rules governing mergers and other corporate reorganizations have become increasingly complex. This Live Webcast will focus on the tax issues presented by various corporate transactions, including single-buyer acquisitions, multi-party joint ventures, cross-border mergers, and complex acquisitions of public companies with domestic and foreign operations, including spin-offs and other dispositions of unwanted operations. Among other things, the program will analyze the complex regime presented by Section 355 of the US Tax Code, which is the primary vehicle for moving assets out of a corporation without a tax, and other rules that significantly limit its benefits in the context of certain acquisitive transactions, with an emphasis on current Treasury regulations. The program will also cover U.S. legislation and administrative rulings regarding transfers of property, including assumption of liabilities, transfers of built-in losses, and treating certain stock as boot. It will contrast taxable asset sales with tax-free asset reorganizations, explore the world of “deemed” asset acquisitions under Code Section 338 and discuss the various consolidated return issues that arise when consolidated groups are involved in M&A transactions.
Finally, the program, through its highly distinguished panel of experts, will evaluate evolving techniques for structuring, financing, and refinancing corporate turnovers.
Speakers/Faculty Panel
David Rievman, Partner, Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP
Martin Huck, Senior Manager, National Mergers and Acquisitions Group, Ernst & Young LLP
Justin D. Stalls, Associate, Latham & Watkins LLP
