Substantive Series: Corporate Governance: Beyond the Basics

September 24, 2013

Corporate governance practices continue to attract increased scrutiny from regulators, stakeholders, the media and observers. Our panel of experts will discuss best practices in discharging directors' duties and strategies for minimizing the risks associated with those responsibilities.

Join Bennett Jones and our expert panel:

 Alan Gardner, Partner and Chair, Securities Litigation Group

Jeff Leon, Partner and Co-Chair, Litigation Group

Jesslyn Maurier, Associate, Corporate Commercial Group

Barry Reiter, Partner and Chair, Corporate Governance Group

Eric Hoaken, Partner, Lax O'Sullivan Scott Lisus LLP

Riyaz Lalani, Chief Executive Officer, Bayfield Strategy

for a BJA substantive series course which will focus on:

  • Proxy contests: avoiding them, anticipating them and fighting them to win;
  • Hostile takeover bids: role of the target board and consideration of recent developments in defensive tactics;
  • Building a great board: who do you want on the board, how do you find them, board and director evaluation, and considerations relevant to candidates who may be asked to serve on a board or may wish to resign from one; and
  • Internal investigations: when are they advisable and how to manage them.
