Retirement living and aged care businesses are in the midst of what could be described as a perfect storm created by various regulatory, financial, operational, legal and governance pressures.

For some, this presents a choice of exploring options for exit in order to apply their resources elsewhere, or to avoid business failure. For others, this presents opportunities for growth via mergers and acquisitions.

Please join us in Sydney or Melbourne to hear from an expert panel around their insights into mergers and acquisitions in these sectors, and how to overcome the challenges so that opportunities may be realised.

There will be an opportunity for Q&A. Please send through any burning questions prior to the panel session to seminars@rk.com.au.

LASA affiliates Russell Kennedy are recognised market leaders in the provision of legal services to the retirement living and aged care sectors. EY is a global leader in assurance, M&A, tax, transaction and advisory services.
