Please join Morgan Lewis for a webinar on Import Due Diligence in M&A Transactions, presented by our International Trade Practice.
Under the construct of successor liability, purchasing the assets of another company may also include the acquisition of import-related financial liabilities. Given the magnitude of those financial liabilities, companies engaged in merger and acquisition activities should be conducting a thorough review of the target company's import activities as a component of their due diligence. Additionally, the import operations of a target company may also lead to previously unexplored cost-saving opportunities.
In this third installment of our webinar series focused on imports and customs, we will discuss successor liability, the situations in which U.S. government agencies will seek to hold successors responsible for the prior import errors of their targets, and best practices for acquiring/merging companies can undertake to identify hidden risks and potential cost-saving opportunities.
