Event Driven Investing and the Impacts of a Changing Regulatory Landscape
Since
the Trump administration came into office there has been a significant

acquisitions. This presentation explores the building blocks of event
driven investing, how these factors have been influenced by the Trump
administration and how best to navigate this new environment.
