It has been an extraordinary election cycle in the United States so far. With the decision in November in view, our New York office looks at the current business landscape in the U.S. markets, considering what the election’s outcome could mean for organizations in the U.S. and beyond. Regardless of the result of the election, divergent positions on either side of the aisle are set to impact business strategy, from how companies approach M&A, #securities, #privateequity, #realestate and other #transactions, to financing, antitrust and #employment practices.

In Icahn v. Illumina, the Delaware Court of Chancery clarified when information sharing between the directors of a Delaware corporation and their nominating shareholders is permitted. The Court held that an employee of an activist shareholder (who was nominated to the board of a public corporation) could not share confidential and privileged board information with the shareholders who nominated him.

Investors who suffer direct financial harm resulting from the breach of Ontario securities or commodity futures laws may soon be able to receive compensation directly from the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) as a result of two new proposed rules. If they come into force, the proposed rules would require the OSC to initiate a claims process and distribute funds obtained in satisfaction of repayment (formally known as “disgorgement”) orders to eligible harmed investors. Under the proposed rules, the OSC would not distribute disgorged funds from prohibited or illegal practices.
