Coping with the Credit Crisis: Certain Considerations for Boards of Directors and Senior Management

October 26, 2008

The evolving credit crisis is having an impact not only on the financial markets, but across the general economy as well, adversely affecting otherwise healthy companies outside the financial services industry in a number of ways. Boards of directors and senior management teams of companies affected by the credit crisis have had a range of issues to address, both in respect of their own access to capital (current or future) and in relation to third parties on whose operations or financial well-being the companies depend (including lenders as well as key customers or suppliers). We have prepared three alerts to provide directors and senior management teams with a checklist of issues that they should be addressing. One alert focuses on U.S. public companies, a second focuses on non-U.S. companies with SEC reporting obligations and a third focuses on high yield issuers.
