RON LAURIE: OK. So this is the banker panel. And these two gentleman up here probably know as much about M&As any two individuals on the planet. Stefan Selig is a vice chairman of investment banking at BofA Merrill Lynch. And Dave Descoteaux is managing director of Lazard and has been involved in many of the major high visibility patent deals of late. So let me just kick it off and ask the question, what gives you discomfort about trying to do ...

LAWRENCE S. MAKOW: I think we have everybody. We're going to continue with the 10:15 panel. The way I wanted to do this was make some introductory remarks, which I will try to keep as brief as possible, but kind of give an overview of what we're going to try to do with the panel. And then introduce our panelists. And then go on. I guess the unwieldy name of this panel is Regulatory Developments Driving Transactions, Including the Volcker Rule and ...

MITCHELL EITEL: Welcome back. Our next panel is a panel of luminaries. And I'll introduce them just working from left to right.

Before her career at Deloitte, Deborah worked for ...

LAWRENCE S. MAKOW: Good afternoon. It always seems like we run out of time at the end for questions. So I decided I would see if there any questions for this panel first. All right, that was pretty lame. I wanted to basically just say a few short words. This panel is a look at the current state of financial institution M&A and restructuring. We'll have to use a microscope to see it. But no, I think there's a lot of interesting things going on, ...

MITCHELL EITEL: Late for lunch. This panel is going to focus on regulatory capital reform, a subject you've heard something about this morning-- at least alluded to as one of the great issues facing financial institutions in the US abroad. Now we'll get into some detail and discuss where the process starts, what people are looking to do in order to raise the capital they're inevitably going to be required to raise as a result of implementation of ...

DEREK M. BUSH OK. So we're at our last panel of the program. And we're excited to have a new panel this year. And we're really sort of following a trend in a lot of ways, because consumer protection has gained dramatically in prominence. And it's appropriate to spend some time talking about some of the key developments in the area. Many of these issues span not only compliance and enforcement, but have implications for MNA. And we're fortunate to ...
