Corporate Governance Seminar: A Workshop for Private Equity and Other Alternative Asset Management Professionals

On June 6, 2013, Kramer Levin hosts a seminar entitled “Corporate Governance: A Workshop for Private Equity and Other Alternative Asset Management Professionals” at the firm's New York offices.

Once seen as the exclusive province of public companies, corporate governance considerations have now also been moving front and center in the private company world. Understanding the practical application of corporate governance concepts and rules, and how they can impact real world operational and strategic decision making, has become a critical knowledge base for private equity and other alternative asset managers. Given their dual responsibilities — to both the portfolio companies on whose boards they sit, and the investor who appointed them — an understanding of the area is especially key for corporate directors who are appointed to a Board as a representative of an alternative asset investor.

Our workshop, led by experienced practitioners from Kramer Levin’s Corporate Governance, Corporate Finance, Private Equity and Hedge Funds, and Litigation groups, will lead a discussion of special interest to these appointed directors (“designated directors”) and the investors who appoint them, as well as their advisors.

The panel of speakers includes:
Arthur H. Aufses III, Partner
Kenneth P. Kopelman, Partner
Howard T. Spilko, Partner
