Lien Solutions’ Amanda Partak will join Marjorie Krumholz of Thompson Coburn and Moderator Eddie Gross from Vedder Price for “Making Business Move: Transportation Leasing and Finance”. The roundtable will take place on Tuesday, October 16 from 3:00 to 4:30 pm.

The panelists will engage in a roundtable discussion with the audience regarding various transportation finance considerations, including how financing providers, investors and other participants in our industry analyze the various challenges associated with transportation equipment financings relative to non-transportation equipment financings in order to increase the likelihood of successful deal completion.

The panelists and audience will share perspectives regarding the current market approach to structuring, documenting, closing and syndicating transportation financing transactions, including by responding topical questions, such as:

• How much more difficult is it for traditional equipment financing providers to lease or finance these types of transportation equipment?
• What are some of the critical asset-specific challenges relating to transaction structures and closings?
• What are some of the more meaningful legal and practical considerations when structuring and closing a multi-jurisdictional transaction?
• What are the capital markets implications when participating in these transactions?
• Are there different/worse tax, liability and other risks or burdens that impact a financing provider’s decision to participate in these transactions?
