In this episode of Defining Matters, partners Kam Jamshidi and Simon Walker unpack one of the most important and frequently negotiated provisions in public M&A transactions: standstills.

Using notable Takeovers Panel decisions, including Diatreme/Metallica and International All Sports, Kam and Simon explore the commercial and legal tensions that arise between bidders seeking flexibility and targets seeking protection.

Key topics include: • The role and purpose of standstills in public M&A • How bidders and targets approach key negotiating points • The importance of due diligence access and information-sharing • What recent Takeovers Panel decisions mean for dealmakers • Why parties should not expect the Panel to rewrite a bargain once it has been struck

A great discussion on the negotiation, strategy and risk considerations shaping today's public M&A transactions.
