About

The role of the Chief Legal Officer has expanded well beyond legal risk management. Today, CLOs are increasingly central to financial strategy, capital allocation, and engagement with investors and the market.

This session explores the evolving relationship between the CLO, the CFO, and Capital Markets, and how legal leaders can add tangible value at the intersection of governance, disclosure, transactions, and investor confidence.

Through a practical, boardroom-focused discussion, the speakers will examine how CLOs and CFOs work together in areas such as equity and debt raises, M&A, earnings disclosures, regulatory scrutiny, and market-sensitive decision-making — and what capital markets teams expect from legal at each stage.

Designed for senior in-house legal leaders, this session will provide real-world perspectives, practical insights, and clear takeaways for CLOs who want to strengthen their influence with finance leaders and play a more strategic role in capital markets activity.
