Quality of Knowledge Management (KM) at Elite Transactional Firms
Posted: Fri Oct 15, 2021 9:10 am
Do the elite, high-volume M&A/corporate firms like Latham and Kirkland have substantially better KM material (i.e. precedents, forms, market databases, know-how) as compared to your average V50?
Let's say you are drafting a merger agreement with a complex stock-for-stock setup, at many shops you just ask around and pull a precedent from a recent deal someone has done. Do the elite firms have a better/more scientific way of organizing precedents?
Asking primarily about M&A, as we all know the list of elite firms that pump out a ton of great capital markets content (MoFo, Latham, etc).
