The trend of increasing numbers of Israeli companies trading in the US shows no signs of slowing down. Whether it's the search for higher valuations, proximity to relevant markets, or regulatory relief from local burdens, many Israeli companies choose to register for trading specificallyin the US, whether through an IPO or SPAC merger.

Whatever the reason may be, listing on US stock exchanges presents these companies, their executives, and in house legal counsels with similar challenges to those of listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange but also unique challenges, including differences in regulatory requirement investor expectations. 

We have gathered in this course the best experts in the fields of law, finance, business, and corporate governance with knowledge and experience in publicly traded Israeli companies in the US, all in order to share with course participants practical insights, thoughts, and advice from the field.
