Takeovers Law & Strategy

Written by Freehills partner Rodd Levy, this well-known and practical book covers all aspects of takeovers and takeover defensive strategies, legislative changes, techniques and tactics and the reinvention of the Takeovers Panel. It is based largely on the author's extensive experience as a takeovers practitioner for 20 years and on the many other significant takeover bids Freehills has advised on.

The book contains a wealth of practical tips and advice for all steps in the takeover process. Topics include:

• strategic planning for the bid
• foreign bidders, anti-competitive bids and acquisitions in regulated industries
• action and tactics during the offer period
• long-term defensive strategies
• disclosure of shareholding interests
• compulsory acquisitions
• dispute resolution before the Takeovers Panel.

The book is an essential reference for anyone involved in a takeover, including lawyers, company executives, investment bankers and stockbrokers. It is also a useful guide for students.

The guide is available from the Lawbook Co on 1300 304 195 or through its eStore at Thomson Legal and Regulatory.
