Not unlike its relentless and systemic assault on the human body, Covid-19 is wreaking havoc on the global economy. With virtually every sector experiencing unprecedented turbulence and uncertainty, no business is immune to the short- and longer-term challenges of the pandemic.
As businesses grapple with the economic fallout of the pandemic, they will require specific strategic guidance, both business and legal, depending on whether seeking to protect or acquire distressed assets.
