DIS@Tokyo: Japanese and German Perspectives on Post M&A Disputes

DIS-Event

Arbitration is a popular choice for dispute resolution in Japanese-German cross-border corporate transactions. In Germany, it has become the common method of resolving post M&A disputes. Typical scenarios include disputes about contractual representations and warranties, purchase price adjustments, MAC (Material Adverse Change) clauses, earn-outs, escrowed funds, and statutory tort claims. Often le-gal and accounting questions are intertwined.

In a Japanese-German cross-border M&A deal, some common questions arise: Should I select arbitration? If so, what choices should I make in the arbitration clause? Is splitting the seat from the applicable substantive law a good compromise?

In this seminar, we will invite panelists who are active on the front line from both Japan and overseas, who will discuss typical challenges that arise from cross-border M&A transactions, and how they can be addressed in contract drafting, and whether those typical issues could be solved through arbitration

This seminar is open to non-members of the Japan Association of Arbitrators. Please note that you can only participate at the venue and not online.
