RizingTV The Regtech Edge Episode 1:
RizingTV The Regtech Edge Episode 1: A lot seems to have changed in 2023. There was inflation, rising interest rates, fears around an “engineered recession” and people were interested in a new technology called generative AI. With so many changes, we were bound to see dynamic market conditions for dealmaking in 2023. What’s the scope of dealmaking this year? Would it be eye-catching mega-deals that could hit their peak the way they did in 2021? Would it be mid-market deals that could drive transformation and growth? Can deal volumes hit pre-pandemic 2019 levels?
In this first episode of The RegTech Edge, Xerxes Antia, Partner, BTG Legal and Joebin Devassy, Senior Partner, Desai & Diwanji explore from a legal perspective how dealmaking and due diligence have changed in the course of the pandemic and in a post-pandemic world, whether major crises in startups affected deals overall, whether 2023 would be a vintage year for dealmaking, what the AI space looks like, the evolving FinTech ecosystem, how legal contracts have changed and more.
