Diane Holt Frankle to Speak at Berkeley Business Law Journal/Berkeley Center for Law, Business and the Economy Symposium on Shareholder Activism

Corporate Partner Diane Holt Frankle will speak at the Berkeley Business Law Journal/Berkeley Center for Law, Business and the Economy Symposium on Shareholder Activism on April 4, 2014 at Boalt Hall. In the “Hot-Button Issues—How Should We Interpret the Current State of Play?” session, Diane and fellow panelists will examine recent developments that have shaped the current landscape, including how recent disclosure regulations have changed the way companies deal with activism and the effect of activist campaigns on M&A activity. The panel will also discuss whether there should be more regulation addressing complexity and transparency of financial derivatives, how boards assess their options and if there is value to be derived from activist campaigns with a short-term strategy. CLE credit will be offered.
