Securities, M&A & Corporate Governance Litigation
In today’s market, litigators with experience in securities, corporate governance, and M&A-related (collectively, “securities litigation”) matters need to leverage their broad experience to serve as both advocate and as counsel and strategist, focused on helping clients to overcome not just a legal issue but a collective business problem. Given the frequent interplay between things such as corporate-control transactions, public offerings, activist shareholders, the use of complex derivatives and other financial instruments, bad news impacting stock performance, regulatory inquiries and investigations, and insurance coverage, strategic and tactical litigation decisions can have a wide-ranging impact on the success of a given transaction, as well as on companies, their boards, senior management, and advisors.

Aparna Sehgal Discusses European CRE Recovery with Structured Credit Investor
Winston & Strawn partner Aparna Sehgal spoke with Structured Credit Investor to discuss the findings of the Bayes Business School’s latest European Commercial Real Estate Lending report and the legal issues and trends underpinning them. In addition to valuable data on deal volumes and covenant and pricing terms, the report on European real estate debt markets offers insight into how underlying funding structures and bank participation through the repo/loan-on-loan market are shaping the recovery of different real estate markets at a national and sector level. According to the report, U.K. property values and deal activity have rebounded faster, while European markets remain challenged by a mix of stalled development sales, rising capital costs, and stricter environmental upgrade requirements hold back volumes.
