LPA Singapore shares M&A insights with ESSEC’s International Business Law students

LPA Singapore shares M&A insights with ESSEC’s International Business Law students

Karim Boursali, Associate at LPA Singapore and ESSEC alumni, participated as a speaker in the International Business Law course of the Master in Strategy & Management of International Business (SMIB) at ESSEC Asia-Pacific campus this year.

Karim delivered an engaging and insightful introduction to the structure and dynamics of M&A transactions, highlighting:

  • the key stages and architecture of an M&A deal,
  • negotiation drivers and valuation considerations,
  • the specificities of cross-border transactions in Asia,
  • current market trends shaping acquisition strategies in the region.

His contribution offered students a clear, practice-oriented perspective on the complexities of M&A and the pivotal role legal advisers play in securing successful outcomes.

We extend our thanks to ESSEC Asia-Pacific for this excellent collaboration, and in particular to Professor Veronika Korom for her trust.

A warm congratulations to the students for their energy, curiosity, and high-quality discussions!
