The federal securities laws, made up of a interwoven collection of Congressional statutes, rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission and federal judicial precedent, play a ubiquitous role throughout a company’s life-cycle, relevant from the first issuance of founder shares at organization, to the use of equity compensation to reward and incentivize directors, employees and consultants, to offerings of equity and debt in corporate finance transactions, to initial,
secondary and alternative public offerings, in mergers and acquisitions, strategic transactions and beyond.
This webinar series of leading securities law experts discusses both the fundamentals of the federal securities laws and the latest developments in this ever-evolving area of law.
As with every Financial Poise Webinar, each episode is delivered in Plain English and brings you into engaging, sometimes humorous, conversations designed to entertain as it teaches. Each episode in the series is designed to be viewed independently of the other episodes so that participants will enhance their knowledge of this area whether they attend one, some, or all episodes.
Episode #2
The private capital markets have become an increasingly important source of funding for both private and public companies alike. Today total capital raised through private placements surpasses total capital raised in public offerings. What’s more, in recent years legislation like the JOBS Act has made a number of significant changes to laws and regulations governing private capital markets. Consequently, an understanding the myriad private offering exemptions and how to properly conduct a private placement is crucial for not only for lawyers, but also for executives, managers, directors and anyone involved in corporate finance transactions.
In this webinar our expert panel provides you with a high-level overview of private offering exemptions, including the latest developments in this ever-changing area of the securities laws, as well as tangible examples and practical advice on how to conduct a successful private placement.
This webinar is delivered in Plain English, understandable to you even if you do not have a background in the subject. It brings you into an engaging, even sometimes humorous, conversation designed to entertain as it teaches. And, it is specifically designed to be viewed as a stand-alone webinar, meaning that you do not have to view the other webinars in the series to get a lot out of it.
