The Outlook: Money Manager M&A in 2009

NOW AVAILABLE ON DEMAND

The recent record-setting pace of money management M&A was derailed by the market implosion of 2008, leaving money managers playing defense and buyers - both financial and strategic - struggling to value potential acquisition targets in a market where benchmark indexes have moved 10% in a single day.

Will the dust settle enough during the coming year to permit the deer to escape from the headlights' glare? Will wounded financial conglomerates continue to hive off their money management arms? Will alternatives firms once again find themselves objects of desire, or are they looking decidedly less attractive - nice personalities be damned? Will IPOs remain dead? MBOs triumphant?

Our panel of experts will discuss these and other critical issues and answer participants' questions.
