Building a Public Company Infrastructure: Governance, Legal & Regulatory Requirements
May 11, 2021 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Financial and accounting issues aren’t the only matters to consider as you build a public company infrastructure. Going public will increase your company’s visibility and require a transformation of processes around governance, as well as strong understanding of the tax, legal and regulatory compliance requirements.
Our presenters will discuss governance and look at the different exchange requirements of the NYSE and NASDAQ. Additionally, Weaver’s professionals will cover the income tax and corporate structuring requirements in advance of a transaction, general state and federal tax compliance issues, as well as considerations for legal and regulatory compliance and other registration matters. Our session will cover the current regulatory landscape, the rise of ESG, diversity and inclusion and other HR considerations, and the importance of governance and oversight.
Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of the following:
- Governance requirements for the NYSE and NASDAQ exchanges
- Tax infrastructure, accounting and compliance matters
- Corporate structuring needs in advance of a transaction
- Current regulatory landscape and governance best practices for public companies
