Reverse acquihires are turning traditional merger dynamics on their head, raising fresh questions for dealmakers and regulators alike. But what exactly are the antitrust and HSR implications when talent, not technology or assets, drives the transaction? Sam Weinstein, Professor of Law at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, joins hosts Lexi Michaud and Anant Raut to unpack how reverse acquihires fit within existing merger frameworks, what, if anything, triggers reporting obligations, and where enforcement agencies may focus next. Listen to this episode to learn more about how shifting deal structures are testing the boundaries of antitrust review and compliance.

With special guest:

Sam Weinstein, Professor of Law at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law and Faculty Co-Director of the Heyman Center on Corporate Governance
