Please join the Webber Wentzel Corporate team to discuss the following key corporate developments which grabbed headlines in 2018 and are set to shape 2019:

• JSE developments
  In response to issues encountered by companies in practice as well as high profile company scandals, the JSE focused its efforts on restoring market confidence by proposing a number of reforms due to take effect in 2019. We will hear insights from the CEO of the JSE, Nicky Newton-King, on key developments at the JSE and the proposed regulatory reforms likely to affect listed companies.
• Companies Act amendments and recent case law
  We will share our comments on the proposed amendments to the Companies Act and also review related case law.
• M&A market trends
  We will discuss trends and deal points in the international market likely to shape M&A deals in South Africa.
• Hostile takeovers - lessons learned from ATON's hostile bid for Murray & Roberts
  We will consider the lessons learned on the hostile bid by ATON to acquire Murray & Roberts which may be pertinent to future acquirers and targets.
