The CCPA was designed to emulate the European General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) in many respects. The program will address how the CCPA is like, and how it differs from, the GDPR, and practical steps that companies should take to come into compliance with the regulation. The program’s presenter, a partner at the law firm of Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner, has been ranked by Lexology as the most read author on data privacy and security in the world, and is the author of the American Bar Association’s General Data Protection Regulation: Answers to the Most Frequently Asked Questions.

The answer to this question determines whether a court supervised restructuring can take place at all and whether it must be filed as a chapter 11 restructuring or as a chapter 9 municipal restructuring. When states do not permit governmental entities to file chapter 9, the default is often chapter 11 and the courts, over investor objections, have permitted chapter 11 restructurings to move forward. Assessing the risk that arises from uncertainty regarding whether and what bankruptcy proceedings can be used should be part of the investor’s underwriting process. In this webinar we will review the case law and talk about specific due diligence that should be

**** CD's are pre-order only and not available until after the program date - Online is not available until after the program date **** A decade after the “Great Recession,” numerous indicators—some new, some old—point to the reemergence of troubled times in the near future. Regulators and investors have little to no visibility into the pools of hundreds of trillions of dollars of derivatives and other esoteric securities pegged to the debt markets; outstanding U.S. corporate debt exceeds $7.5 trillion; interest rates are on the rise; geopolitical uncertainty over trade policy and BREXIT contributes to market volatility and a wall of high yield debt is set to mature in 2019/2020. Against this backdrop, it would be fool hardy to assume the good times will never end; instead, prudence dictates preparing for the storm before it reaches shore. This program is designed to equip in-house and outside counsel alike with the knowledge

**** CD's are pre-order only and not available until after the program date - Online is not available until after the program date **** The exposure to Cyber threats for companies has escalated over the past 10 years. What was once a random act, simple hacking has grown into a wave of unstoppable organized crime. Firewalls are no longer a defense for the pinpoint accuracy of Spear Phishing. The criminals of the past that stole simple information and data have been replaced by massive attacks resulting in severe business interruption, ransom demands, and information/data destruction. Cyber security is a must, but more import is a Cyber Liability Insurance Policy which will cover your costs in the event of a Cyber Attack. There are many facets of Cyber-crime with its endpoint targets constantly changing, thus: the need for carefully designed coverages which can blend Cyber/Crime/Technology coverages to defend today’s electronic

Cyan and Lucia defined key securities law issues regarding whistleblowers, class actions and perhaps the future of government administrative enforcement actions. While the Supreme Court has only agreed to hear one securities case to date in the coming term, it has the potential to be a blockbuster: Lorenzo will consider the long simmering question about what constitutes scheme liability and whether the SEC can use the theory to evade Janus on false statements and perhaps wipe out the distinction between primary and secondary liability. If Judge Kaveanaugh from the D.C. Circuit is confirmed the case may be more interesting – he wrote the dissent in Lorenzo in the D.C. circuit which is highly critical of the SEC’s position.
