GoldenNetworking.com to Host Private Equity Leaders Forum 2009, "Buying a Failed Bank: Opportunities and Pitfalls"

New York, NY, October 27, 2009 --(PR.com)-- GoldenNetworking.com will host the Private Equity Leaders Forum 2009, "Buying a Failed Bank: Opportunities and Pitfalls" (http://www.PrivateEquityLeadersForum.com ), December 10th in New York City. This will be the forum where private equity executives, investment and hedge fund managers, entrepreneurs, investors, academics and professionals following developments in the U.S. financial and banking systems will obtain crucial insights they can act upon immediately to take advantage of unique opportunities to acquire financial assets. Indeed, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation has eased its restrictions on private equity firms buying banks and is now looking to these firms to rescue some of the more than 100 banks that have fallen in the recession and those that are expected to in the next few months. If buyers like private equity firms do not purchase these banks, the FDIC will have to cover the failed banks with its $13 billion insurance fund. Although some private equity firms have already moved to buy stakes in banks, many seem to have been staying in the sidelines.

Private Equity Leaders Forum 2009, "Buying a Failed Bank: Opportunities and Pitfalls" will feature experienced executives, managers, bankers, lawyers, experts and practitioners from leading organizations, who will reveal how to:
· Examine the banking system landscape in the US and what current glimmers of hope in the horizon might mean for potential investors in financial assets
· Evaluate the regulatory changes passed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in order to attract private equity firms as potential buyers
· Understand the eligibility and required qualifications for private equity firms to acquire or make significant investments in a failed bank
· Facilitate the understanding of the capital commitments, structures, required disclosures and cross-support requirements, collateralizing risk among separate investments
· Guide private equity executives in the evaluation of the competitive issues connected to a potential investment in a failed bank
· Evaluate the profitability of bank acquisitions, including BankUnited Financial Corp.

Private Equity Leaders Forum 2009, "Buying a Failed Bank: Opportunities and Pitfalls", is produced by GoldenNetworking.com, the premier networking community for businessmen, entrepreneurs, professionals and diplomats, founded by Columbia Business School MBA and former McKinsey consultant Edgar Perez.
