Industry experts to discuss how politics, regulation and technology are impacting the economy and M&A deals

NEW YORK--()--AXA Equitable, a leading financial protection company, and SRS Acquiom, a pioneer in post-closing M&A services, will be hosting an event for M&A professionals to discuss the biggest trends within the deal making community. The forum, titled “Global Forces Impacting M&A: Industry Leaders Discuss Top Economic and Political Issues,” will be held in New York City, 3:00 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 14, 2016.

The diverse panel consists of political insider, Ron Klain (former Chief of Staff for Vice Presidents Biden and Gore), financial expert Heidi Miller (Chair of HSBC North America Holdings Inc.) and investment maven Seth Masters (Chief Investment Officer of Bernstein). They will offer dynamic perspectives on how election year complexities will impact the markets as well as future deal flow and terms. Other topics of interest include how Brexit, legal and FinTech disruption, valuations in flux, and global conflict are impacting the macro economy, banks/financial institutions, and M&A transactions.

After a record breaking $3.8 trillion in acquisitions last year1, the global M&A space finds itself in a unique climate of geopolitical and technological transition. How these influencing variables affect the industry in 2016 and beyond will be a topic of interest to all parties involved.
