A report informing investment strategy in light of US regulatory changes
Overview
The target company of our client was caught up in a public scandal in December 2020 that led to a number of changes in internal practices and catalysed a process of bringing in new ownership and management.
Work
We evaluated the company's policy changes against the backdrop of legislative and regulatory proposals in the US and Canada that could affect its operations.
We conducted interviews with industry groups, consumer advocates and former policymakers to gain perspective on policy developments that could affect the target. The analysis then informed our client’s investment strategy.
Impact
We provided a series of best practice recommendations drawing upon our work for other video-streaming and other consumer technology platforms for the target to consider should the prospective owners make the investment.
