M&A into the U.S. presents new opportunities and challenges as the global deal market continues to rebound amidst geopolitical uncertainty. And with the beginning of Donald Trump’s second term as president, U.S. national security priorities and personnel are changing dramatically, and antitrust enforcement will evolve. In this timely seminar, senior partners from Kirkland & Ellis and Mori Hamada discussed M&A, national security and other topics that Japanese companies and banks need to consider when evaluating U.S. transactions.
