Corporate mergers and acquisitions affect large and small companies and raise a wide range of legal and practical implications with respect to employee benefit plans. These issues are frequently overlooked in the midst of a merger, acquisition or divestiture and present both challenges and opportunities, and even risks for the unwary. Learn about employee benefit plan concerns that are likely to arise in the wake of a merger or acquisition, including legal compliance issues and practical concerns, strategies to avoid costly litigation, and the most sound business practices for administering benefit plans in a mergers and acquisitions setting.
 
Take away legal and, better yet, practical advice, to manage the retirement plan issues that arise in mergers, acquisitions and divestitures.
 
Join White & Case's Head of the Global Executive Compensation, Benefits and Employment Law Practice, Kenneth A. Raskin, and WellPoint's Vice President of Total Rewards, Marc Nathan, on Thursday, December 13, as they guide you through managing the retirement plan issues that arise in M&A and divestiture situations.
