Overview

Evolving techniques for structuring, financing, and refinancing corporate turnovers and other activities will be emphasized, with attention to consolidated return issues, financially troubled businesses, the role of financial products, the economic substance doctrine, the effects of recent regulatory guidance and the potential consequences of tax reform.
