💡 WHAT IS THE INTERSECTION BETWEEN M&A AND FINANCIAL REGULATION?

Although bank financing is the standard for M&A transactions, it is not the only option, with various regulated structures providing an alternative. Examples include loan or investment crowdfunding, bond financing or the creation of an investment fund. However, such structures pose a number of regulatory and legal challenges:

🔍 Is it possible to flexibly change the terms of financing when there are hundreds or even thousands of entities on the lenders’ side (e.g. in bonds or crowdfunding)?

⚖️ How to properly set up the institute of a security agent so that the process of enforcement of the lien is carried out without hindrance?

📈 What is the flexibility of the investment policy for sub-limit funds?

🛠️ What are the rules of the investment and divestment process for special funds, and what role can the risk manager and compliance officer play in acquiring assets for the funds?

💰 From which investors can funds (or possibly other valuable assets) be raised for each structure?

Tomáš Demo and Peter Varga will discuss some of these topics at our M&A conference on 13.3.2025 in Bratislava.
