The Role of Issuer’s Counsel
Given the increased tax, securities, and other regulations, as well as the increased regulatory initiatives and activity affecting issuers over the past 20 years, the role of issuer’s counsel has become ever more important and complex.

Recommended Audience: in-house and issuer’s counsel with fewer than five years of experience navigating bond issuance.
