Tariffs have become a hot issue in the current administration’s economic policy, sparking significant news coverage, legal battles and heated debates.
To kick off this webinar, the speakers will share an insightful overview of the tariffs currently in effect and the challenges to the tariffs currently pending in the Unites Sates Supreme Court.. There will then be a discussion of the impact of tariffs on various industries, including retail, automotive, solar, pharmaceuticals and other manufacturing, trucking, farming, small businesses and companies that are already highly leveraged and financially distressed.
The speakers will then explore how tariffs have heightened the risk of bankruptcy filings in these sectors and provide examples of bankruptcy filings where tariffs have played a contributory role. The speakers will then discuss contract provisions that can protect buyers and sellers of goods confronting heightened tariff risk. Finally the speakers will discuss how tariffs can potentially enhance a company’s value both in and out of bankruptcy.
This promises to be an enlightening and engaging session.
