2026 Transaction Advisors M&A Conference at the University of Chicago

Chicago, Illinois

Cleary Gottlieb partner James Hu participated in the 2026 Transaction Advisors M&A Conference at the University of Chicago.

James moderated the panel, “Managing the Sign-to-Close Period,” which discussed how interim operating covenants are being structured to flex for slow close transactions, how corporate M&A teams are avoiding gun jumping while actively planning for rapid post-close actions, and how corporate M&A teams should oversee working capital mechanisms and other closing adjustments to prevent gaming.
