** ABSTRACT:

"Reverse Mergers and Alternative IPOs -- The Legal, Company & Financial Side of the Story"

Reverse mergers into public shells and self-financings are important alternatives worldwide to traditional IPO's, but due to recent rule changes and developments in the market, these transactions have become more complex.  This panel will discuss the the benefits of reverse mergers and the sky-rocketing growth of reverse mergers initiated by Chinese companies on stock exchanges around the world, in particular in the U.S. & Canada.
